When the Clouds Have Passed Away

As we dai­ly jour­ney on­ward

Whatsoe’r our lot in life

Clouds of sin and sor­row

Fill us with dis­may;

But if we will trust in Je­sus

He will sanc­ti­fy our strife

And re­ceive us when

The clouds have passed away.

When the clouds have passed away

We shall dwell with Christ for aye

Sharing in eter­nal bright­ness

With re­deemed ones

Round the throne

When for ev­er­more

The clouds have passed away.

Jesus knows that on­ly sun­shine

Cannot draw us close to Him

For we are so strange­ly

Weak and prone to stray;

But we learn by faith to fol­low

When with tears the way is dim

And we’ll see Him when

The clouds have passed away.

O the bright­ness of the morn­ing!

O the bliss be­yond com­pare!

When ac­cept­ed we

Shall stand in white ar­ray

Knowing that with Christ

our Sav­ior

We eter­nal joys shall share

And for­ev­er all

The clouds have passed away.
