1 Weeping hours will soon be over,
And a joy will come to the soul at last;
Kindred ties that here are broken,
We shall find when the night is o’er.
Refrain:
Weeping hours will soon be over,
Soon in bonds of union sweet,
With the dear ones gone before us,
We shall rest at Jesus’ feet.
2 Weeping hours will soon be over,
There’s a home above ever bright and fair;
We shall all forget our sorrow
In the bliss that awaits us there. [Refrain]
3 Weeping hours will soon be over,
Every tear be wiped from our eyes away;
When we know and greet each other
In the light of eternal day. [Refrain]
4 Weeping hours will soon be over,
All the toils and cares of the world shall cease;
Weary days and nights of watching,
Will be lost in the home of peace. [Refrain]
