[Verse 1]
Though the clouds may hover over
There's a bright and golden ray
'Tis the promise that in heaven
God, my God, God promised to wipe all of my tears away

[Verse 2]
When we reach that blessed homeland
Where 'tis everlasting days
On that bright eternal morning
God, my God, God shall wipe all of my tears away

[Outro]
(Away) Lord have mercy, away
(Away) Lord have mercy
Away
