Tell me watchman now what of the morning Is the end of the night coming soon I've been waiting and praying and longing For the One who is faithful and true For I know He's the hope for the helpless And a comfort to all those who mourn Is the song of His glorious returning Rising up on the wings of the dawn His morning comes and O the sun will rise again And all of the earth will be filled with His glorious light
And even when the day is short and evening comes I know in Him even darkness even the darkness is light Tell me watchman now what of the morning For we sing of the Light of the world And we sing of the One they call Jesus Who is mighty in deed and in word For I know He's the Son of the Highest And I know that His victory is won And the song of His glorious returning Rises up on the wings of the dawn
