That glorious day is drawing
nigh,
When Zion’s light shall come;
She shall arise and shine on
high,
Bright as the morning sun;
The north and south their sons
resign,
And earth’s foundations bend;
Clothed as a bride, Jerusalem
All glorious shall descend.
The King Who wears the
splendid crown,
The azure’s flaming bow;
The holy city shall bring
down,
To bless His church below;
When Zion’s bleeding,
conqu’ring King,
Shall sin and death destroy,
The morning stars shall join
to sing,
And Zion shout for joy.
