Of that radiant golden day,
When before His kingly splendor,
All the mists shall fade away.
For the morning that shall bring,
Borne aloft on angels’ wing,
In a cloud of glory seated,
Christ, my glorious, coming king.
For the morning that shall bring,
Borne aloft on angels’ wing,
In a cloud of glory seated,
Christ, my glorious, coming king.
2 I am longing now to meet Him,
To hear His welcome voice
When His chosen ones shall greet Him,
While the martyred saints rejoice.
Then the trumpet sound shall ring!
And the hosts angelic sing!
O! with rapture I shall meet Him,
Christ, my glorious coming king.
Then the trumpet sound shall ring!
And the hosts angelic sing!
O! with rapture I shall meet Him,
Christ, my glorious coming king.
3 Soon I hope to hear the summons
To call the ransomed home.
And I watch and wait the message
That shall tell my Lord has come.
Then, caught up to met my king
With the ransomed ones I’ll sing
Praises to the Lamb victorious,
Christ my glorious Lord and King.
Then, caught up to met my king
With the ransomed ones I’ll sing
Praises to the Lamb victorious,
Christ my glorious Lord and King. Languages: English Tune Title: WHISTLER

Peter Philip Bilhorn was born, in Mendota, IL. His father died in the Civil War 3 months before he was born. His early life was not easy. At age 8, he had to leave school to help support the family. At age 15, living in Chicago, he had a great singing voice and sang in German beer gardens there. At this time, he and his brother also formed the Eureka Wagon & Carriage Works in Chicago, IL. At 18 Peter became involved in gospel music, studying under George F. Root and George C. Stebbins. He traveled to the Dakotas and spent some time sharing the gospel with cowboys there. He traveled extensively with D. L. Moody, and was Billy Sunday's song leader on evangelistic endeavors. His evangelistic work took him into all the states of the Union, Great Britain, and other foreign countries. In London he conducted a 4000 voice choir in the Crystal Palace, and Queen Victoria invited him to sing in Buckinghm Palace. He wrote some 2000 gospel songs in his lifetime. He also invented a folding portable telescoping pump organ, weighing 16 lbs. It could be set up in about a minute. He used it at revivals in the late 19th century.
