SS&S 1029: Only waiting till the shadows

1. Only waiting till the shadows

Are a little longer grown;

Only waiting till the glimmer

Of the day's last beam is flown:

Till the night of earth has faded

From the heart once full of day;

Till the stars of heaven are breaking

Through the twilight soft and grey.

 

2. Only waiting till the reapers

Have the last sheaf gathered home;

For the summer time has faded,

And the autumn winds have come.

Quickly, reapers! gather quickly

All the ripe hours of my heart;

For the bloom of life is withered,

And I hasten to depart.

 

3. Only waiting till the angels

Open wide the pearly gate,

At whose portals long I've lingered,

Weary, poor, and desolate:

Even now I hear their footsteps,

And their voices far away;

If they call me, I am waiting,

Only waiting to obey.

 

4. Waiting for a brighter dwelling

Than I ever yet have seen,

Where the tree of life is blooming,

And the fields are ever green:

Waiting for my full redemption,

When my Saviour shall restore

All that sin has caused to wither:

Pain and sorrow come no more.

Psalm 33

¹ Sing joyfully to the Lord, you righteous;
    it is fitting for the upright to praise him.
² Praise the Lord with the harp;
    make music to him on the ten-stringed lyre.
³ Sing to him a new song;
    play skillfully, and shout for joy.

⁴ For the word of the Lord is right and true;
    he is faithful in all he does.
⁵ The Lord loves righteousness and justice;
    the earth is full of his unfailing love.

⁶ By the word of the Lord the heavens were made,
    their starry host by the breath of his mouth.
⁷ He gathers the waters of the sea into jars;
    he puts the deep into storehouses.
⁸ Let all the earth fear the Lord;
    let all the people of the world revere him.
⁹ For he spoke, and it came to be;
    he commanded, and it stood firm.

¹⁰ The Lord foils the plans of the nations;
    he thwarts the purposes of the peoples.
¹¹ But the plans of the Lord stand firm forever,
    the purposes of his heart through all generations.

¹² Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord,
    the people he chose for his inheritance.
¹³ From heaven the Lord looks down
    and sees all mankind;
¹⁴ from his dwelling place he watches
    all who live on earth—
¹⁵ he who forms the hearts of all,
    who considers everything they do.

¹⁶ No king is saved by the size of his army;
    no warrior escapes by his great strength.
¹⁷ A horse is a vain hope for deliverance;
    despite all its great strength it cannot save.
¹⁸ But the eyes of the Lord are on those who fear him,
    on those whose hope is in his unfailing love,
¹⁹ to deliver them from death
    and keep them alive in famine.

²⁰ We wait in hope for the Lord;
    he is our help and our shield.
²¹ In him our hearts rejoice,
    for we trust in his holy name.
²² May your unfailing love be with us, Lord,
    even as we put our hope in you.
