I am waiting for the dawning Of the bright and blessed day,
When the dark-some night of sorrow Shall have vanished far away;
When for ever with the Saviour, Far beyond this vale of tears,
I shall swell the song of worship Through the everlasting years.
I am looking at the brightness, See, it shineth from afar,
Of the clear and joyous beaming Of the "Bright and Morning Star."
Through the dark grey mist of morning Do I see its glorious light;
Then away with every shadow Of this sad and weary night.
I am waiting for the coming Of the Lord who died for me;
O His words have thrilled my spirit, "I will come again for thee."
I can almost hear His footfall On the threshold of the door,
And my heart, my heart is longing To be with Him evermore.
