The Trumpet Will Sound in the Morning 1. Oh, we must be ready by night, For the trumpet will sound in the morning, We must work while the day is called light, For the trumpet will sound in the morning. Refrain: Oh, the glory is in sight, Ev'ry hill and vale adorning; Then press right on with all your might For the trumpet will sound in the morning. 2. Be sure that your armor is strong, For the trumpet will sound in the morning, Never mind tho' the battle be long, For the trumpet will sound in the morning. (Refrain) 3. Yes, on till we draw the last breath, For the trumpet will sound in the morning, Even sing at the river of death, For the trumpet will sound in the morning. (Refrain)
