Hymn: TLH 606, st. 1,4 :
O’er the Distant Mountains Breaking
1. O’er the distant mountains breaking
Comes the redd’ning dawn of day,
Rise, my soul, from sleep awaking;
Rise and sing and watch and pray.
‘Tis thy Savior,
‘Tis thy Savior,
On His bright returning way.
4. With my lamp well trimmed and burning,
Swift to hear and slow to roam,
Watching for Thy glad returning
To restore me to my home.
Come, my Savior,
Come, my Savior,
O my Savior, quickly come.
