1 When I shall come to the end of my way,
When I shall rest at the close of life's day,
When "Welcome home" I shall hear Jesus say,
O that will be sunrise for me!
Chorus:
Sunrise tomorrow, sunrise tomorrow,
Sunrise in glory is waiting for me;
Sunrise tomorrow, sunrise tomorrow,
Sunrise with Jesus for eternity.
2 When in His beauty I see the great King,
Join with the ransomed His praises to sing,
When I shall join them my tribute to bring,
O that will be sunrise for me! [Chorus]
3 When life is over and daylight is past,
In heaven's harbor my anchor is cast,
When I see Jesus my Savior at last,
O that will be sunrise for me! [Chorus]
