RESURRECTION MORNING

Studio

1I'M glad I ever heard the cry,
We'll all rise together in the morning;
My Saviour's coming from the sky,
We'll all rise together in the morning.

RefrainIn the morning, resurrection morning,
We'll all rise together in the morning.

2A righteous crown we soon shall wear,
We'll all rise together in the morning;
It will outshine the morning star,
We'll all rise together in the morning.

3The blessed Saviour then will come,
We'll all rise together in the morning;
To take his holy people home,
We'll all rise together in the morning.

4You'll see him coming in a cloud,
We'll all rise together in the morning;
Then all the saints will shout aloud,
We'll all rise together in the morning.

5O, glorious hope—O, blest abode,
We'll all rise together in the morning;
I shall be there, and like my Lord,
We'll all rise together in the morning.
