Based on hymn 269 from the Christadelphian hymn book

lyrics

Watchman, watchman, tell us of the night
What its signs of promise are
Traveller, o'er yon mountain's height
See that glory-beaming star?
Watchman, does its beauteous ray
Aught of hope or joy foretell?
Traveller, yes it brings the day,
Promised day of Israel

Watchman, watchman, tell us of the night
Higher yet that star ascends
Traveller, blessedness and light
Peace and truth its course portends
Watchman, will its beams alone
Gild the spot that gave them birth?
Traveller, ages are its own
See it burst o'er all the earth

Watchman, watchman, tell us of the night
For the morning seems to dawn
Traveller, darkness takes its flight
Doubt and terrors are withdrawn
Watchman, let they wanderings cease
Hie thee to thy quiet home
Traveller, Lo the Prince of Peace
Lo the son of God is come
