Watch! For the morning is breaking,
|
|
| 1. | Watch! For the morning is breaking, |
| | A moment, and He will be here! |
| | The mists and the shadows are fleeing, |
| | The darkness will soon disappear; |
| | And He, for whom ages have waited, |
| | The Lord Who has tarried so long, |
| | Will come in an outburst of glory, |
| | A moment, and we shall be gone. |
| 2. | Watch! for the morning is breaking, |
| | A moment, the crown will be won! |
| | A moment, and we shall be with Him, |
| | A moment, the journey is done! |
| | Lord, keep us each moment unsleeping, |
| | And count us all worthy to be |
| | In that noble band of Thy watchers, |
| | Whose life is a vigil with Thee. |
