Come Morning

          God's children too long have been burdened
          They are longing for Heaven's green shore
          Where heartaches are left far behind us
          And the burdens are carried no more.

            Chorus
            Come morning, I'll walk by the river
            And I'll rest 'neath the evergreen tree.
            And I'll carry my cross thru the midnight.
            Come morning, there's glory for me.

          Sometimes I'm despised and rejected
          And I question oh Father, how long?
          And then I'll take one more look at Mount Calvary,
          Then it gives me the strength to go on.

            Chorus
            Come morning, I'll walk by the river
            And I'll rest 'neath the evergreen tree.
            And I'll carry my cross thru the midnight.
            Come morning, there's glory for me.
