ILL MEET YOU

I will meet you in the morning, by the bright river side, When all sorrow has
drifted away;
I’ll be standing at the portals, when the gates open wide, At
the close of life’s long, dreary day.

CHORUS
I’ll meet you in the morning with a “How do you do,”
And we’ll sit down by the river and with rapture “auld”
acquaintance renew,
You’ll know me in the morning,
by the smiles that I wear,
When I meet you in the morning, in
the city that is built foursquare.

I will meet you in the morning, in the sweet by and by, And exchange the
old cross for a crown;
There will be no
disappointments and nobody shall die, In that land, e’er the sun goeth down.

I will meet you in the morning, at the end of the way, On the streets of that city of gold;
Where we all can be together and be happy for aye, While the years and the ages shall roll.
