Lyrics
Verse 1
The King shall come when morning dawns And light triumphant breaks; When beauty gilds the eastern hills And life to joy awakes.
Verse 2
Not as of old a little child To bear, and fight, and die. But crowned with glory like the sun That lights the morning sky.
Verse 3
O brighter than the rising morn When He, victorious, rose And left the lonesome place of death, Despite the rage of foes.
Verse 4
O brighter than that glorious morn Shall this fair morning be When Christ our King in beauty comes And we His face shall see.
Verse 5
And let the endless bliss begin, by weary saints foretold, when right shall triumph over wrong, and truth shall be extolled.
Verse 6
The King shall come when morning dawns, and light and beauty brings; "Hail, Christ the Lord!" Thy people pray, "Come quickly, King of kings!"
