Now Is the Time Approaching

Let war be learned no longer, let strife and tumult cease, all earth a blessed garden and God the god of peace. 2 Let all that now divides us remove and pass away, like shadows of the morning before the blaze of day. Let all that now unites us more sweet and lasting prove, a closer bond of union, in a blessed land of love. 3 O long-expected dawning, come with your cheering ray! Yet shall the promise beckon and lead us not astray. O sweet anticipation! It cheers the watchers on to pray, and hope, and labor, till all our work is done. Used With Tune: WEBB
