From the first dawning light
Till the dark ev’ning rise,
For thy salvation, Lord, I wait
With ever-longing eyes.
From the first dawning light
Till the dark ev’ning rise,
For thy salvation, Lord, I wait
With ever-longing eyes.
Who may ascend into the hill of the Lord? Or who may stand in His holy place?
Surely your goodness and unfailing love will pursue me
Some trust in chariots, and some in horses; But we will remember the name of the Lord our God
The Lord lives! Blessed be my Rock! Let the God of my salvation be exalted
As for me, I will see Your face in righteousness; I shall be satisfied when I awake in Your likeness
The important question answered, Who is a proper member of the Church militant? and who shall finally join the Church triumphant?
My heart shall feel thy love, and raise
My cheerful voice to songs of praise
If the foundations are destroyed, what can the righteous do?
No enemy shall dare to stand when God ascends on high
