On the great eter­nal morn­ing,
When we’ll hear the trum­pet blast,
When eter­nal day is dawn­ing
And the night of sin is past;
When we see the Sav­ior com­ing
In His glo­ri­ous ar­ray,
Hallelujah! what a greet­ing
There will be that day!

Refrain

What a greet­ing, what a meet­ing,
When our Sav­ior we shall see by and by!
What a greet­ing, what a meet­ing,
When the bless­èd Sav­ior comes in the sky!

When the sun of right­eous­ness shall
Rise above the east­ern hills,
When its gold­en rays in splen­dor
Glitter o’er the rocks and rills,
On that re­sur­rect­ion morn­ing
Wen the dead in Christ shall rise,
We will shout to meet each oth­er
Yonder in the skies.

Refrain

There will be no sin or ev­il,
And the tempt­er will be bound;
In the place of grief and sor­row
Shouts of glo­ry will re­sound;
We shall reign with Christ a thou­sand years,
His face we then shall see;
Hallelujah! what a time of glo­ry that will be!

Refrain
