We are watching, we are waiting,
For the bright prophetic day;
When the shadows, weary shadows
From the world shall roll away.
We are waiting for the morning,
When the beauteous day is dawning;
We are waiting for the morning,
For the golden spires of day.
Lo! He comes! see the King draw near;
Zion, shout! the Lord is here.
We are watching, we are waiting,
For the star that brings the day;
When the night of sin shall vanish,
And the shadows melt away.
We are waiting for the morning,
When the beauteous day is dawning;
We are waiting for the morning,
For the golden spires of day.
Lo! He comes! see the King draw near;
Zion, shout! the Lord is here.
We are watching, we are waiting,
For the beauteous King of day;
For the Chiefest of ten thousand,
For the Light, the Truth, the Way.
We are waiting for the morning,
When the beauteous day is dawning;
We are waiting for the morning,
For the golden spires of day.
Lo! He comes! see the King draw near;
Zion, shout! the Lord is here.
