Yes! we trust the day is breaking;
Joyful times are near at hand:
God, the mighty God, is speaking
By his word in ev'ry land:
|: When he chooses, :|
Darkness flies at his command.
Let us hail the joyful season;
Let us nail the dawning ray:
When the Lord appears, there's reason
To expect a glorious day:
|: At his presence :|
Gloom and darkness flee away.
While the foe becomes more daring;
While he enters like a flood;
God, the Saviour, is preparing
Means to spread his truth abroad;
|: Ev'ry language :|
Soon shall tell the love of God.
God of Jacob, high and glorious,
Let thy people see thy hand;
Let the gospel be victorious,
Thro' the world in ev'ry land:
|: And the idols :|
Perish, Lord, at thy command.
