Watchmen! onward to your stations

Watchmen! onward to your stations!Blow the trumpet long and loud!Preach the gospel to the nations,Speak to every gathering crowd!See! the day is breaking!See the saints awaking,No more in sadness bowed!

Watchmen! hail the rising gloryOf the great Messiah's reign!Tell the coming Savior's story,Tell it to the listening train:See his wrath revealing;See the Spirit sealing;'T is life amid the slain!

Watchmen! as the clouds are flying,As the doves in haste return,Thousands, from amid the dying,Flee to Christ, his love to learn;All their sighs and sadnessTurn to joy and gladness,When they this truth discern.
