Soon will come the set­ting sun,
When our work will all be done,
And the wea­ry heart at last be still;
But the Lord, with lov­ing cry,
Will awake us by and by,
And we’ll meet again on Zi­on’s hill.

Refrain

We’ll meet each oth­er there,
Yes, we’ll meet each oth­er there,
And the Sav­ior’s pre­sence share
When we meet each oth­er there;
We’ll meet each oth­er there,
Yes, we’ll meet each oth­er there,
And a crown of glo­ry we shall wear.

Deep the sha­dows in the vale,
Fierce the howl­ing of the gale,
Long and dark the storm around our door;
But the Lord will make a way
To the shin­ing realms of day,
With the sha­dow and the storm no more.

Refrain

Flood the heart with part­ing tears,
Frost the head with pass­ing years,
Mingle want and woe to­ge­ther here;
But the Lord at length will come,
In His love, to take us home,
And we’ll ne­ver know a sor­row there.

Refrain
