LET US WAIT Lyrics

If we enter into glory

At the resurrection light

And in triumph sing the story

Of the love that banished night

Shall we murmur at the sleeping

Till that great resplendent day

Will it be a cause for weeping

When our tears are wiped away

When we see the saints all beaming

In their crowns and robes of white

And our loved ones in the gleaming

With their forms so pure and bright

Let us wait

Let us wait

Let us wait for Christ from Heaven

Till the resurrection morn

When we meet beyond the sighing

In the home beyond the gloom

Shall we grieve because of lying

In the dark and silent tomb

If we see the harvest glowing

In the grand eternal rays

And then gladly reap from sowing

In these tears thro' sorrow's days

Shall we then be heard repining

Tho' the seed in earth remain

In that morning's splendid shining

It will wave in golden grain

Let us wait

Let us wait

Let us wait for Christ from Heaven

Till the resurrection morn

Let us wait for Christ from Heaven

As the church in days of old

When to us our crowns are given

We will walk the streets of gold

It will be no cause of sadness

That we parted when we died

We shall be in perfect gladness

With the psalmist satisfied
