Sing and Pray!

Eternity dawns on my vi­sion to­day

Gather round me my loved

Ones to sing and to pray;

The sha­dows are past

and the veil is with­drawn

Brightly now does the morn

Of eternity dawn.

Hallelujah! Hal­le­lu­jah! Hal­le­lu­jah

we sing!

Jesus con­quered the grave

Robbing death of its sting;

Hosanna! again let the glad an­them ring

Sing and pray! Eter­ni­ty dawns!

Eternity dawns! Oh

the glor­ies that rise

How they burst on my soul

In its bliss­ful sur­prise;

With rap­ture the gleam of the ci­ty I see

Where the crown and the man­sion

Are wait­ing for me.

Eternity dawns! There will be no more night

I am near­ing the gates

Of the ci­ty of light;

The sha­dows of time are now pass­ing away

Tarry not

O my Sav­ior

Come quick­ly

I pray.

Eternity dawns! Earth re­cedes from my view;

Weeping friends

now fare­well

I must bid you adieu;

I’m rest­ing in Je­sus

His mer­its I plead

Fear ye not

for my God

Shall sup­ply all your need.

Eternity dawns! ’Tis a source of con­tent

That in preach­ing sal­va­tion

My life has been spent;

’Tis Je­sus my all

and the Sav­ior of men

May His grace be up­on

You for­ev­er. Amen.
