The morning breaks, the shadows flee; Lo, Zion’s standard is unfurled! The dawning of a brighter day, The dawning of a brighter day Majestic rises on the world. 2. The clouds of error disappear Before the rays of truth divine; The glory bursting from afar, The glory bursting from afar Wide o’er the nations soon will shine. 3. The Gentile fulness now comes in, And Israel’s blessings are at hand. Lo, Judah’s remnant, cleansed from sin, Lo, Judah’s remnant, cleansed from sin, Shall in their promised Canaan stand. 4. Jehovah speaks! Let earth give ear, And Gentile nations turn and live. His mighty arm is making bare, His mighty arm is making bare His cov’nant people to receive. 5. Angels from heav’n and truth from earth Have met, and both have record borne; Thus Zion’s light is bursting forth, Thus Zion’s light is bursting forth To bring her ransomed children home.

Hail to the brightness of Zion’s glad morning! Joy to the lands that in darkness have lain! Hushed be the accents of sorrow and mourning. Zion in triumph begins her glad reign. 2. Hail to the brightness of Zion’s glad morning, Long by the prophets of Israel foretold! Hail to the millions from bondage returning! Gentiles and Jews the glad vision behold. 3. Lo! in the desert the flowers are springing; Streams, ever copious, are gliding along. Loud from the mountaintops echoes are ringing; Wastes rise in verdure and mingle in song. 4. Hark! from all lands, from the isles of the ocean, Praise to Jehovah ascending on high. Fallen the engines of war and commotion; Shouts of salvation are rending the sky.

Now We’ll Sing with One Accord

Author: William W. Phelps, 1792–1872 Hymnal: Hymns of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints #25 (1985) Meter: 7.7.7.7 D Topics: Gathering of Israel Lyrics: 1. Now we’ll sing with one accord, For a prophet of the Lord, Bringing forth his precious word, Cheers the Saints as anciently. When the world in darkness lay, Lo! he sought the better way, And he heard the Savior say, “Go and prune my vineyard, son!” 2. And an angel surely then, For a blessing unto men, Brought the priesthood back again In its ancient purity. Even Joseph he inspired; Yea, his heart he truly fired With the light that he desired For the work of righteousness. 3. And the Book of Mormon true, With its cov’nant ever new, For the Gentile and the Jew, He translated sacredly. God’s commandments to mankind, For believing Saints designed, And to bless the seeking mind, Came to him from Jesus Christ. 4. Precious are the years to come, While the righteous gather home For the great millennium, When they’ll rest in blessedness. Prudent in this world of woes, They will triumph o’er their foes, While the realm of Zion grows Purer for eternity. Languages: English Tune Title: AZALIA
