^DThere’s a ^Glight u^Dpon the ^Gmountains, and the ^Gday is ^Dat the ^Gspring, ^E7when our ^Ameyes shall ^Esee the ^Ambeauty and the ^Emglory of the ^DKing; ^Dweary ^Gwas our ^D7heart with ^Ewaiting, and the ^E7night-watch ^Gseemed ^E7so ^Amlong; ^B7but His ^Emtriumph-^Eday is ^Ambreaking, and we ^Ghail it ^Dwith a ^Gsong.

^DIn the ^Gfading ^Dof the ^Gstarlight we may ^Gsee the ^Dcoming ^Gmorn; ^E7and the ^Amlights of ^Emen are ^Ampaling in the ^Emsplendours of the ^Ddawn: ^Dfor the ^Geastern ^D7skies are ^Eglowing as with ^E7light of ^Ghid^E7den ^Amfire, ^B7and the ^Emhearts of ^Emen are ^Amstirring with the ^Gthrobs of ^Ddeep de^Gsire.

^DThere’s a ^Ghush of ^Dexpec^Gtation, and a ^Gquiet ^Din the ^Gair; ^E7and the ^Ambreath of ^EGod is ^Ammoving in the ^Emfervent breath of ^Dprayer: ^Dfor the ^Gsuffering, ^D7dying ^EJesus is the ^E7Christ u^Gpon ^E7the ^Amthrone, ^B7and the ^Emtravail ^Eof our ^Amspirit is the ^Gtravail ^Dof His ^Gown.

^DHe is ^Gbreaking ^Ddown the ^Gbarriers, He is ^Gcasting ^Dup the ^Gway; ^E7He is ^Amcalling ^Efor His ^Amangels to build ^Emup the gates of ^Dday: ^Dbut His ^Gangels ^D7here are ^Ehuman, not the ^E7shining ^Ghosts ^E7a - ^Ambove; ^B7for the ^Emdrum-beats ^Eof His ^Amarmy are the ^Gheart-beats ^Dof our ^Glove.

^DHark! we ^Ghear a ^Ddistant ^Gmusic, and it ^Gcomes with ^Dfuller ^Gswell; ^E7’tis the ^Amtriumph-^Esong of ^AmJesus, of our ^EmKing, Emmanu^Del: ^DZion, ^Ggo ye ^D7forth to ^Emeet Him; and, my ^E7soul, be ^Gswift ^E7to ^Ambring ^B7all thy ^Emsweetness ^Eand thy ^Amdearest for the ^Gtriumph ^Dof our ^GKing!
