Watchmen on the walls of Zion

Author: Anon. Appears in 11 hymnals Topics: Waiting for Christ Closing Work Lyrics: 1 Watchmen on the walls of Zion, What, O tell us, of the night? Is the day-star 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? 2 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? 3 Light is beaming, day is coming! Let us sound aloud the cry; We behold the day-star rising Pure and bright in yonder sky! Saints, be joyful; Your redemption draweth nigh. 4 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.

When shall we meet again

Author: Alaric A. Watts Appears in 348 hymnals Topics: Worship Closing Hymns Lyrics: 1 When shall we meet again, Meet ne'er to sever? When will peace wreathe her chain Round us forever? Our hearts will ne'er repose, Safe from each blast that blows, In this dark vale of woes, Never, no, never! 2 When shall love freely flow Pure as life's river? When shall sweet friendship glow, Changeless forever? Where joys celestial thrill, There bliss each heart shall fill, And fears of parting chill Never, no, never! 3 Then to that world of light Take us, dear Saviour; May we all there unite, Blessed forever; Where kindred spirits dwell, There may our music swell, And time our joys dispel Never, no, never! 4 Soon shall we meet again, Meet ne'er to sever; Soon shall peace wreath her chain Round us forever; Our hearts will then repose, Secure from worldly woes; Our songs of praise shall close Never, no, never! Used With Tune: UNITY
