Gains the port and wel­come home.
Poor sin­ners then on earth will cry,
As the rays of the morn­ing
Thy life is in the quick­en­ing air;
Illumes the sky with bright­en­ing gold­en light;
To the grave I sink,
To the cow­boys who have fain
There’s a light up­on the shore, bro­ther,
See how the pit gapes wide for you,
The clouds are fly­ing past;
The clouds are fly­ing past;
Faith views the ra­di­ant dome,

flash­es

Though thy sails be rent and torn,
O mount­ains, on us fall,
Will nev­er de­cline.
There is Thy pow­er; Thy law is there.
Lo! on the sky the morn dis­pels the night.
O’er the shelv­ing brink,
We will meet to part no more
The night is al­most o’er, bro­ther,
And thou, my soul, look down­ward too,
The thun­der’s roll­ing fast;
The thun­der’s roll­ing fast;
From the new, from the new Je­ru­sa­lem.
