76. Will There be Light for Me?

1 Will there be light at eventide,
When my bark unmoors for sea?
Will faith’s bright ray illume the way?
O will there be light for me?
Will there be light?
O will there be light?
O will there be light for me, for me?
Will there be light at eventide,
When my bark unmoors for sea?

2 When I draw near the other shore,
Will there be a shining band
Of those I knew and loved on earth
Awaiting me on the strand?
Will there be light?
O will there be light?
O will there be light for me, for me?
Will there be light of faces bright
On the banks of the crystal sea?

3 On yonder shore are the golden gates
That lead to the city fair,
Where Jesus stands,
With outstretched hands,
To bid me welcome there.
There will be light,
O there will be light,
O there will be light for me, for me.
He is the Light of glory bright
That shone on Calvary.
