Let Us Wait Lyrics

If we enter into glory
At the resurrection light
And in triumph sing the story
Of the love that banished night
Shall we murmur at the sleeping
Till that great resplendent day?
Will it be a cause for weeping
When our tears are wiped away?

When we see the saints all beaming
In their crowns and robes of white
And our loved ones in the gleaming
With their forms so pure and bright

Let us wait
Let us wait
Let us wait for Christ from Heaven
Till the resurrection morn

When we meet beyond the sighing
In the home beyond the gloom
Shall we grieve because of lying
In the dark and silent tomb?
If we see the harvest glowing
In the grand eternal rays
And then gladly reap from sowing
In these tears thro' sorrow's days

Shall we then be heard repining
Tho' the seed in earth remain?
In that morning's splendid shining
It will wave in golden grain

Let us wait
Let us wait
Let us wait for Christ from Heaven
Till the resurrection morn

Let us wait for Christ from Heaven
As the church in days of old
When to us our crowns are given
We will walk the streets of gold
It will be no cause of sadness
That we parted when we died
We shall be in perfect gladness
With the psalmist satisfied
