We are Watching We are Waiting { We are Watching We are Waiting BEAUTEOUS DAY-George Frederick Root We are Watching, We are Waiting } We are watching, we are waiting, For the bright prophetic day: When the shadows, weary shadows From the world shall roll away. Chorus We are waiting for the morning, When the beauteous day is dawning; We are waiting for the morning, For the golden spires of day. Lo! He comes!see the King draw near; Zion, shout! the Lord is here. 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.
