Hymn 142

The night is almost gone

Meter: 6.6.6.6.8.8

1

The night is almost gone

The day is near at hand

The veil will soon be rent

That veils the Saviour's face

The huge clouds that cover our sight

Shall soon be swept off from our view.

2

Lift up your heads, for your

Salvation draweth nigh

See the sun in splendour

Behold the sky grows bright

Ye saints of God, rejoice be glad

The Lord our God will soon appear.

3

If men in mockery, laugh

If they would not believe

But, you believe His word

He cannot deceive you

And when the world will pass away

Ye shall behold His glory then.

4

The Lord has provided

for you a mansion bright

There is no sorrow there

But joy forever more

Ye saints of' God, your joys begin

Ye shall soon hear the angels' songs.
