Christian Endeavor Hymns ‎#100

100. O Golden Day

1 O golden day so long desired,
Born of a darksome night,
The swinging globe at last is fired
By thy resplendent light;
And Hark! like Memnon's morning chord,
Is heard from sea to sea
This song: “One Master, Christ; the Lord,
And brethren all are we.”

2 The noises of the night shall cease,
The storms no longer roar;
The factious foes of God's own peace
Shall vex His church no more;
A thousand thousand voices sing
In surging harmony,
This song: “One Master, Saviour, King,
And brethren all are we.”

3 Sing on, ye chorus of the morn,
Your grand Endeavor strain,
Till Christian hearts, estranged and torn,
Blend in the glad refrain;
And all the church, with all its pow'rs,
In loving loyalty
Shall sing, “One Master, Christ, is ours,
And brethren all are we.”
