Lyrics

1. Light after darkness, gain after loss, strength after weakness, crown after cross, sweet after bitter, hope after fears, home after wand'ring, praise after tears!
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!
3. Health after sickness, death it does foil, wealth after poverty, ease after toil; after all trials, comfort of heart, with Christ united, never to part!
4. Near after distant, gleam after gloom, love after loneliness, life after tomb; after much patience, rapture and bliss; right was the pathway leading to this.
