When the Mists Have Rolled Away

Public domain
When the mists have rolled in splendor From the beauty of the hills, And the sunlight falls in gladness On the rivers and the rills, We recall our Father’s promise In the rainbow of the spray: We shall know each other better When the mists have rolled away. Refrain We shall know, as we are known, Never more to walk alone, In the dawning of the morning Of that bright and happy day, We shall know each other better, When the mists have rolled away. Oft we tread the path before us With a weary, hardened heart. Oft we toil amid the shadows, And our fields are far apart. But the Savior’s Come, ye blessèd All our labor will repay When we gather in the morning Where the mists have rolled away. Refrain We shall come with joy and gladness, We shall gather round the throne. Face to face with those that love us We shall know as we are known. And the song of our redemption Shall resound through endless day When the shadows have departed And the mists have rolled away. Refrain
