Tune: ARLINGTON
Meter: C.M.
1
Lo, what a glorious sight appears To our believing eyes! The earth and seas are passed away, And the old rolling skies.
2
Attending angels shout for joy, And the bright armies sing Mortals! behold the sacred seat Of your descending King.
3
His own soft hand shall wipe the tears From every weeping eye; And pains, and groans, and griefs, and fears, And death itself shall die.
4
How long, dear Savior! O, how long Shall this bright hour delay? Fly swifter round, ye wheels of time! And bring the welcome day.
