Coming Day of Plenty (By & By)

There's a coming day of plenty

Where the Sabbath will not end,

Where soldiers finally get to rest

And leave this world of sin.

Appetites will all be satisfied

And flames ain't going to burn.

We're all dying to get there,

But we gotta wait our turn.

By and by, Lord, when the morning comes,

When the saints of God are gathered home,

We will tell the story of how we've overcome.

We will understand it better by and by.

We don't know yet what we shall be

Or what we shall become.

In the twinkling of an eye,

We'll be staring in the Son!

All these trials and tribulations

In no ways will compare

To the glory that we're gonna see

When we all get there!

By and by, Lord, when the morning comes,

When the saints of God are gathered home,

We will tell the story of how we've overcome.

We will understand it better by and by.

We will understand it better!

The Son will shine forever

Past the dark side of this moon!

The Son will shine forever

Past the dark side of this moon!

Oh, people be getting ready,

We're going soon and very soon!

People be getting ready,

We're going soon and very soon!

(Oh!) By and by, when the morning comes,

When the saints of God are gathered home,

We will tell the story of how we've overcome.

We will understand it better by and by.

We will tell the story of how we've overcome.

We will understand it better by and by.

We will understand it better by and by.

We will understand it better by and by. Oh!
