Yes, our lives may seem all gloomy,
     Clouds may shadow every day;
But we'll understand it better
     When the mists have rolled away;
When the Saviour comes to take us
     To that land of rest up there,
We'll forget the disappointments
     Which were here so hard to bear.

So let's think of God and Heaven,
     Let's look up and laugh and smile,
And forget all earthly sorrows;
     We'll be leaving after a while
For that home to be with Jesus,
     For that home so bright and fair.
For that land that's filled with gladness,
And we'll find no sorrows there.
