Though the clouds may hover over There's a bright and golden ray It's the promise that is in heaven God shall wipe all tears away When we reach that blessed homeland Where it is everlasting days Oh the bright eternal morning God shall wipe all tears away No more sorrow, no more weeping Peace and joy everyday For beside life's crystal river God shall wipe all tears away Though the clouds may hover over There's a bright and golden ray It's the promise that is in heaven God shall wipe all tears away
