Dawn'd that gospel-day Divine;
But suddenly o'ercast,
Surely it again shall shine
With brightest beams at last.
David's Son we soon shall see
Array'd with majesty and power,
Prostrate yi?zw confess 'tis He,
And all mankind adore.

See the standard lifted up.
Behold the Crucified!
Christ our peace, desire, and hope.
We would in Thee confide.
Would in Thee for ever live,
With pardon and salvation bless'd;
Us into Hiine arms receive.
Into Thy glorious rest.
