3. Good Morning to Heaven

1 When the night is o’er,
On the Day Break Shore,
On the morn of that endless day,
There is welcome there,
In that city fair,
And I’m going up there to stay.

Refrain:
Good morning to heaven, some morning, I’ll say,
Good morning to heaven, and go there to stay,
Where never a shadow shall darken the day,
Good morning to heaven, some morning I’ll say.

2 With the voyage past,
And my anchor cast,
Victory for me shall be won,
As the gates swing wide,
And I step inside,
I shall hear my Lord say, “Well done.” [Refrain]

3 With the day-break song,
Of that wondrous throng,
Singing to our Lord and our King,
I will join some day,
As I go to stay,
Where His praises shall ever ring. [Refrain]
