When shall end the night of weeping? When shall break the promised day? See the whitening harvest languish, Waiting still the laborers' toil; Was it vain, thy Son's deep anguish? Shall the strong retain the spoil? 2. Tidings, sent to every creature, Millions yet have never heard: Can they hear without a preacher? Lord almighty, give the word! Give the word! in every nation Let the Gospel trumpet sound, Witnessing a world's salvation, To the earth's remotest bound. 3. Then the end: thy Church completed, All thy chosen gathered in, With their King in glory seated, Satan bound, and banished sin; Gone for ever parting, weeping, Hunger, sorrow, death, and pain; Lo! her watch thy Church is keeping; Come, Lord Jesus, come to reign!
