Lyrics
The sands of time are sinking,
The dawn of heaven breaks; The summer morn I've sighed for, The fair, sweet morn awakes: Dark, dark hath been the midnight, But dayspring is at hand, And glory, glory dwelleth In Immanuel's Land. O Christ, He is the fountain, The deep, sweet well of love! The streams of earth I've tasted More deep I'll drink above: There to an ocean fullness His mercy doth expand, And glory, glory dwelleth In Immanuel's Land. Oh, I am my Beloved's, And my Beloved's mine! He brings a poor, vile sinner Into His "house of wine." I stand upon His merit, I know no other stand, Not e'en where glory dwelleth In Immanuel's Land! The Bride eyes not her garment, But her dear Bridegroom's face; I will not gaze at glory, But on my King of grace, Not at the crown He giveth, But on His pierced Hand; The Lamb is all the glory Of Immanuel's Land! |
