The Cyber Hymnal #7236
1 We are watching, we are waiting,
For the bright prophetic day:
When the shadows, weary shadows,
From the world shall roll away.
Chorus:
We are waiting for the morning,
When the beauteous day is dawning;
We are waiting for the morning,
For the golden spires of day.
2 We are watching, we are waiting,
For the star that brings the day:
When the night of sin shall vanish,
And the shadows melt away. [Refrain]
3 We are watching, we are waiting,
For the beauteous King of day:
For the Chiefest of ten-thousand,
For the Life, the Truth, the Way. [Refrain]
Lo! He comes! see the King draw near;
Zion, shout! the Lord is near.
