Watchmen, on the walls of Zion,
What
O tell us, of the night?
Is
the daystar now arising?
Will
the morn soon greet our sight?
O'er
your vision Shine there now
some
rays of light?
O'er
your vision Shine there now
some
rays of light?

Tell,
O tell us, are the landmarks
On
our voyage all passed by?
Are
we nearing now the haven?
Can
we e'en the land descry?
Do
we truly see the heavenly kingdom nigh?
Do
we truly see the heavenly kingdom nigh?

Light
is beaming, day is coming!
Let
us sound aloud the cry;
We
behold the daystar rising
Pure
and bright in yonder sky!
Saints,
be joyful; Your redemption draweth nigh;
Saints,
be joyful; Your redemption draweth nigh.

We
have found the chart and compass,
And
are sure the land is near;
Onward,
onward we are hasting,
Soon
the haven will appear;
Let
your voices Sound aloud your holy cheer;
Let
your voices Sound aloud your holy cheer.
