Heeding not the ma­ny who are loi­ter­ing by,
So we all must then be rea­dy
For we have a bur­den bear­er,
Lift up your heads; be glad; cease to sigh,
All in help­less graves t’en­fold,
Which the heav’n­ly bride shall wear;
Lift up your heads, re­joice,
Thy Church unit­ed lifts her pray­er;
Heav’n is touching earth with rest,
How very far from God;
Watchmen on the walls of Zi­on,
’Tis Je­sus gent­ly call­ing,
For Him we’ve long been wait­ing,
Christ is com­ing from on high,
Our doubts and fears will fly,
Oh, to be with­out a Sav­ior,
start

None is like God, whose name is Love,
And hal­le­lu­jahs sing.

Nigh

Victory is nigh! yes, vic­to­ry is nigh!
Shall we all be rea­dy
Yes, the wea­ry night is pass­ing,
Rejoice in hope, for the Lord will come;
Saying calm­ly, It is I;
I am let­ting go the plea­sures
Now breathes a soft­er air,
Guide, guard, and help them ev­ery­where:
Sets her evening lamps alight
Through faith in Jesus’ blood.
Is the day-star now aris­ing?
By and by we shall meet Him,
How oft we’ve asked each oth­er
Christ is com­ing from on high,
In the morn­ing,
Can it be, O bless­èd Sav­ior,
Upward to Cal­va­ry lift­ing mine eye;
In beau­ty and in pow­er;
In all the earth there is no spot
For the morn­ing draw­eth nigh;
