Redemption Nigh

1In the east and west and north and south won-ders have ap-peared;
In the heav-ens and earth the signs are plain that the time is neared;
Lift your heads, be-hold your re-demp-tion draw-eth nigh,
Be-hold, from the earth-ly shad-ows that dark-en and sub-due.

RefrainRe-demp-tion nigh, re-demp-tion nigh,
Be-hold, your re-demp-tion draw-eth nigh;
Re-demp-tion nigh, re-demp-tion nigh,
Be-hold, your re-demp-tion draw-eth nigh.

2There's dis-tress a-mong the na-tions, and the sea and waves shall roar;
There's per-plex-i-ty and trou-ble, and the hearts of men give way;
Lift your heads, be-hold your re-demp-tion draw-eth nigh,
For not all the earth-ly shad-ows Your re-demp-tion can de-lay.

3Soon shall come the glo-ri-ous morn-ing, when the shad-ows flee a-way;
Soon shall dawn the glo-ri-ous morn-ing of e-ter-ni-ty's bright day;
Lift your heads, be-hold your re-demp-tion draw-eth nigh,
For not all the earth-ly shad-ows Your re-demp-tion can de-lay.
