O how I long to see that day,
When the redeemed shall come
To Zion, clad in white array,
Their blissful, happy home.
When the redeemed shall come
To Zion, clad in white array,
Their blissful, happy home.
[CHORUS]
O bear me on, bear me on, To Mount Zion,
O bear me on to that city of love,
Where saints shall ever dwell.
I’ll hear the alleluias roll,
From the unnumbered throng,
And with a heaven-enraptured soul,
I’ll join redemption’s song.
All hail! The morn of glory’s nigh,
The pilgrim longs to see;
That dries the tear from every eye,
Creation’s jubilee.
