rall. night! Singing to welcome the pil-grims of the night! Amen. [ARK! hark, my soul! Angelic songs are swelling HAR O'er earth's green fields, and ocean's wave-beat shore: Angels of JESUS, Angels of light, Singing to welcome the pilgrims of the night! Onward we go, for still we hear them singing, Singing to welcome the pilgrims of the night! Far, far away, like bells at evening pealing, The voice of JESUS sounds o'er land and sea, Singing to welcome the pilgrims of the night! Rest comes at length; though life be long and dreary, And Heav'n, the heart's true home, will come at last. Singing to welcome the pilgrims of the night! Angels! sing on, your faithful watches keeping, Sing us sweet fragments of the songs above; Singing to welcome the pilgrims of the night! Amen. |
