Lyrics
Verse 1
The sands of time are sinking, The dawn of heaven breaks; The summer morn I've sighed for, The fair, sweet morn awakes; Dark, dark hath been the midnight, But dayspring is at hand, And glory, glory dwelleth In immanuel's land.
Verse 2
O Christ, he is the fountain, The deep sweet well of love; The streams on earth I've tasted, More deep I'll drink above; There to an ocean fullness His mercy doth expand, And glory, glory dwelleth, In immanuel's land.
Verse 3
The King there in his beauty Without a veil is seen; It were a wellspent journey, Tho' seven deaths lay between; The lamb with his fair army Doth on Mount Zion stand, And glory, glory dwelleth In immanuel's land.
