The day is drawing nigh.
Still brighter far than this.
When converts like a cloud shall fly
To seek the realms of bliss.
What rapt'rous scenes of joy
Shall burst upon our sight,
When sinners up to Zion's hill
Like doves shall speed their flight.
Beneath thy balmy wing,
O Sun of righteousness,
These happy souls shall sit and sing
The wonders of thy grace.
The day is drawing nigh.
Still brighter far than this.
When converts like a cloud shall fly
To seek the realms of bliss.
What rapt'rous scenes of joy
Shall burst upon our sight,
When sinners up to Zion's hill
Like doves shall speed their flight.
Beneath thy balmy wing,
O Sun of righteousness,
These happy souls shall sit and sing
The wonders of thy grace.
