| 324b | The Hymnal, Revised and Enlarged, as adopted by the General Convention of the Protestant Episcopal Church in the United States of America in the year of our Lord 1892#331b | C1 |
1 Watchman, tell us of the night,
What its signs of promise are.
Traveller o'er yon mountain's height,
See that glory-beaming star.
Watchman, does its beauteous ray
Aught of joy or hope fortell?
Travelle, yes; t brings the day,
Promis'd day of Israel.
Amen.
