Brighter days are sweetly dawning,
Oh, the glory looms in sight!
For the cloudy day is waning,
And the evening shall be light.

Mistly fogs, so long concealing
All the hills of mingled night,
Vanish, all their sins revealing,
For the evening shall be light.

Lo! the ransomed are returning,
Robed in shining crystal white,
Leaping shouting home to Zion,
Happy in the evening light.

Free from Babel, in the Spirit,
Free to worship God aright,
Joy and gladness we're receiving,
Oh, how sweet this evening light.

Hallelujah! saints are singing,
Vict'ry in Jehovah's might;
Glory! glory! keep it ringing,
We are saved in evening light.
