[[Full Lyrics]]

[Verse 1]
The golden morning is fast approaching; 
Jesus soon will come
To take his faithful and happy children
To their promised home.

[Refrain]
O, we see the gleams of the golden morning
Piercing thro’ this night of gloom!
O, we see the gleams of the golden morning
That will burst the tomb.

[Verse 2]
The gospel summons will soon be carried
To the nations round; 
The Bridegroom then will cease to tarry
And the trumpet sound.

[Verse 3]
Attended by all the shining angels,
Down the flaming sky
The Judge will come, and will take his people
Where they will not die.

[Verse 4]
The lov’d of earth who have long been parted
Meet in that glad day;
The tears of those who are broken hearted 
Will be wiped away.
