1. Tho' the pathway seemeth dark and dreary,
As in sadness we are waiting for the dawn,
There is hope and comfort for the weary,
Better days are coming on.

Chorus:
Better days are coming on;
Better days are coming on;
Better days, Better days,
Better days are coming, coming on.

2. Better days! when naught of sin and sorrow
Shall abide with those whose pilgrimage is done;
When the night shall yield to golden morrow
Better days are coming on. [Chorus]

3. Better days! O sweet the song in glory,
When the victory and crown of life are won,
And we sing redemption's wondrous story,
In the days soon coming on. [Chorus]
