9s & 8s.

The day is at hand.
Rom. 13:12.

Christian, the morn breaks sweetly o’er thee,

And all the midnight shadows flee;

Tinged are the distant skies with glory,

A beacon-light hung out for thee;

Arise, arise! the light breaks o’er thee,

Thy name is graven on the throne,

Thy home is in the world of glory,

Where thy Redeemer reigns alone.
