The Morning Breaks

1. The morning breaks, the shadows flee;
Lo, Zion’s standard is unfurled!
The dawning of a brighter day
The dawning of a brighter day
Majestic rises on the world

2. The clouds of error disappear
Before the rays of truth divine;
The glory bursting from afar
The glory bursting from afar
Wide o’er the nations soon will shine

3. The Gentile fulness now comes in
And Israel’s blessings are at hand
Lo, Judah’s remnant, cleansed from sin
Lo, Judah’s remnant, cleansed from sin
Shall in their promised Canaan stand

4. Jehovah speaks! Let earth give ear
And Gentile nations turn and live
His mighty arm is making bare
His mighty arm is making bare
His cov’nant people to receive

5. Angels from heav’n and truth from earth
Have met, and both have record borne;
Thus Zion’s light is bursting forth
Thus Zion’s light is bursting forth
To bring her ransomed children home
