Then arise in thy glory, O Church of God, arise! Tis the dawn of the morrow that greets thy waiting eyes But cloud and mist and shadow must all be rolled away. But cloud and mist and shadow must all be rolled away. Before the world will usher in the long expected day.

O Church of God, arise! Thy borders wide extend, And oer the earths remotest bounds Thy heralds quickly send; Thine armies now are great, But greater they must be, For evry nation, evry clime Shall yet rejoice in thee.

O Church of God, arise! The grand old choral strain Of peace on earth, good will to man, That rang on Judahs plain, Oer all the world shall ring, And echo far and wide, And then the King, thy Lord, shall come, And claim His faithful bride.
