Lyrics
Verse 1: Light after darkness, Gain after loss, Strength after suff’ring, Crown after cross. Sweet after bitter, Song after sigh, Home after wandering, Praise after cry.
Verse 2: Sheaves after sowing, Sun after rain, Sight after mystery, Peace after pain. Joy after sorrow, Calm after blast, Rest after weariness, Sweet rest at last.
Verse 3: Near after distant, Gleam after gloom, Love after loneliness, Life after tomb. After long agony, Rapture of bliss! Right was the pathway Leading to this!
