Behold, the dawn is breaking
In splendor is breaking
When all the earth awaking
At Jesus' name shall bow
When He, who once our sorrow bore
Shall reign supreme from shore to shore
Triumphant now and evermore
Our coming King of Glory
Behold, the dawn is spreading,
In beauty is spreading
The beams of love are shedding
The light of joy divine
From Zion's towers the watchmen cry
Rejoice! rejoice! the time is nigh
When we shall meet our Lord on high
Our blessed King of Glory
| |
O dawn of rapture, telling
Where music is swelling
Within our Savior's dwelling
Above the stars that shine
Where we shall breathe the fragrant air
Of yonder clime, serene and fair
And all His faithful ones shall wear
A promised crown of glory
