When Morning Breaks.
When morning breaks-the shadows fade
Before the mighty king Of day,
Who comes in majesty arrayed;
And Earth, exulting, seems to say:
10, darkness dies-her prey forsakes-
When morning breaks"
When morning breaks-then error heea
Before the sun OF righteousness
Who heals the blinded eyes, and frees
The captive in his helplessness;
From sin and doubt the soul awakes
When morning breaks.
When morning nreaks-the shades Of death
Before the King shall disappear.
For might shall be no more" He saith
Hirlself-rho light-shAll Danish fear,
And JOY the place Of sorrow takes,
When morning breaksl
