1

Sooner or later the skies will be bright,

Tears will be all wiped away; (away;)

Sooner or later, then cometh the lightt,

Night will be turned into day. (glad day.)

CHORUS

Sooner or later cares will have flown,

Sunshine and gladness we’ll see (we’ll see;)

Sooner ro later God calleth His own,

With Him forever to be. (to be.)

2

Sooner or later, our Lord knows the hour,

He’ll send His beloved Son; (His Son;)

Sooner or later, in His might and pow’r,

Our battles all will be won. (be won.)

CHORUS

3

Sooner or later, yes, sooner for some,

Darkness will all then be past; (be past;)

Sooner or later our Savior will come —

With Him will your lot be cast? (be cast?)

CHORUS
