THE VERSE
My soul waits for the Lord more than watchmen for the morning, more than watchmen for the morning.~Psalm 130:6
THE THOUGHT
More than watchmen for the morningI will wait for joy to come
More than watchmen for the morning
Though weeping tarry long
Out of the depths, the miry pit
My soul waits for my God
In His unfailing word I hope
And wait for joy to come
More than watchmen for the morning
I will wait for steadfast love
With God is plentiful redemption
So I wait for joy to come
His promise is my power
His grace, my only plea
So armed with faith’s assurance
I know joy will come to me
My sackcloth turned to gladness
My mourning into song
As the watchmen for the morning
I rejoice to see the dawn
He has marked me with forgiveness
Forgotten my iniquity
My soul will sing Your praise, O God
For joy has come to me
As the watchmen for the morning
I will see the final day
The dawning of Your glory
When every tear is wiped away
The Lamb will be the glory
And Christ will be our light
For joy comes on that morning,
The end of weeping’s night
Soul, arm yourself with power
To believe God’s word is true
Though night is long, ‘tis nearly o’er
And joy will come to you.
THE PRAYER
Lord, I long for the dawning of Your glory, when every tear will be wiped away. Lord Jesus, come soon! Wipe away our tears, take Your thone, and rule this world as You rule our hearts. Let Your kingdom come, let Your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven.EXTENDED READING
