cnd	Pastor & Mrs. Buck Ledford-Tennessee gospel group (139* d)	Lyr Add: The Sunrise Is Coming	15 Jan 22
The lyrics are close to a version printed in 1945 (Humble Hearts, song No. 63) but differs in places. That version was credited to Walter McCord. As sung by Pastor & Mrs. Buck Ledford, Western North Carolina Records WNC 245 and A Shut In's Prayer, LFLP 21. THE SUNRISE IS COMING God's children in a weary world is waiting For the sunrise that surely soon shall dawn When all the war and strife shall cease forever And the long silenced bells of peace ring on CHORUS It is coming (it is coming), surely coming (surely coming) An age that shines over gloom The day for which our weary world is waiting Yes, the sunrise of peace is coming soon Then someday on a happy glad tomorrow When the sunrise shall come and flood the soul Then joy and peace will end our grief and sorrow And the beauties of heaven shall unfold CHORUS Cheer up, though dark the stormy clouds may gather And the rainbow of hope fades into gloom For somewhere far above the clouds the Savior In a glorious light is coming soon CHORUS
