Yes! We Trust the Day Is Breaking

Yes! we trust the day is break­ing

Joyful times are near at hand;

God

the migh­ty God

is speak­ing

By His Word in ev­ery land:

Mark His pro­gress—

Darkness flies at His com­mand.

While the foe be­comes more dar­ing

While he en­ters like a flood

God the Sav­ior is pre­par­ing

Means to spread His truth abroad:

Every lang­uage

Soon shall tell the love of God.

O

’tis plea­sant

’tis re­viv­ing

To our hearts

to hear each day

Joyful news

from far ar­riv­ing

How the Gos­pel wins its way

Those en­light­en­ing

Who in death and dark­ness lay.

God of Ja­cob

high and glo­ri­ous

Let Thy peo­ple see Thy hand;

Let the Gos­pel be vic­tor­ious

Through the world

in ev­ery land;

Let the id­ols

Perish

Lord

at Thy com­mand.
