V An Advance Step in the Royal Programme
(Revelation, Chapters iv. and v.)
“We are watching, we are waiting,
For the bright prophetic day;
When the shadows, weary shadows,
From the world shall roll away.
“We are watching, we are waiting,
For the star that brings the day;
When the night of sin shall vanish,
And the shadows melt away.
“We are watching, we are waiting,
For the beauteous King of day;
For the chiefest of ten thousand,
For the Light, the Truth, the Way.
[83] W. O. Cushing.
“We are waiting for the morning,
When the beauteous day is dawning,
We are waiting for the morning,
For the golden spires of day.”[83]
