I see the dawn is breaking On the hilltops of the blest, "Where the wicked cease from troubling, And the weary be at rest." 2 Far away beyond the shadows Of this weary vale of tears, There the tide of bliss is sweeping Thro’ the bright and changeless years; Oh! I long to be with Jesus, In the mansions of the blest, "Where the wicked cease from troubling, And the weary be at rest." 3 They are launching on the river, From the calm and quiet shore, And they soon will bear my spirit Where the weary sigh no more. For the tide is swiftly flowing, And I long to greet the blest, "Where the wicked cease from troubling, And the weary be at rest." Used With Tune: KANDY Text Sources: Fresh Laurels by William B.

There Were Whisperings In The Heavens

Author: Anonymous Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 2 hymnals Lyrics: 1 There were whisperings in the heavens, There were murmurings in the clouds; There were harp-tones full of sweetness From the joyous angel crowds; There were songs from holy voices, There was brightness o’er the morn, And all nature thrilled with gladness, When our Savior, Christ, was born. 2 It was in a lonely manger Where the Son of God was laid, And did naught of grandeur comfort That pure holy mother maid; But in stillness and in beauty, While the shepherds round adored, Slept in love and loving tenderest Virgin mother and her Lord. 3 And the angels, hovering, guarded Him with love-extended wing, Sweetly singing hope for sinners, And of glory to their king. Let us learn to love like Jesus, And like Him for sorrows mourn, Nor forget ’twas God who loved us, When our Savior, Christ, was born.
