The Better Day

By Lois Ann Calkins

LOIS ANN CALKINS
A better day is coming, For which I've waited long, Enriched with many blessings, And filled with gladsome song.
That day, though known to Jesus, Is hidden yet from me,— A day of gifts most precious, Through glorious victory.
A Friend is surely coming, To wipe away my tears, Removing all my sadness, And banishing my fears.
I'll raise my voice in singing All glory to our King, While angels join in chorus, And loud hosannas sing,—
A day of joy and gladness, A day of sweet release, Devoid of sin and sadness, And filled with perfect peace.
