1. God’s children too long have been burdened,
They are longing for heaven’s green shore,
Where heartaches are left far behind us,
And the burdens are carried no more.
2. Sometimes I’m despised and rejected,
And I question, “O Father, how long?”
And then I’ll take one more look at Mount Calvary,
Then it gives me the strength to go on.
Chorus: Come morning, I’ll walk by the river,
And I’ll rest ‘neath the evergreen tree,
And I’ll carry my cross through the midnight,
Come morning, there’s glory for me.
