Bind the sheaves and sing the harvest song
Turn your eyes to the eastern skies-The master won't tarry long!
Look away, look away-Look away to the day
The day of the Lord quickly comes
Look away, look away-Look away to the day
The day of the Lord quickly comes
Look away to the day when Jesus returns to take His place
On the throne of all mankind.-The throne of love and grace
The throne where He has always sat From eternity ordained
So on this earth it shall one day be He shall forever reign
Look away, look away-Look away to the day
The day of the Lord quickly comes
Look away, look away-Look away to the day
The day of the Lord quickly comes
Look away , look away to Jesus then look within to find
The author and the finisher Of the faith He has designed
We're here today and gone tomorrow Like chaff tossed in the wind
But one day we will rise to obey When Jesus comes again!
Look away to your eternal home-With vision that is clear
Look away for the midnite hour is near
The marriage ceremony is about to begin
And once the door is shutit will never open again!
Look away, look away-Look away to the day
The day of the Lord quickly comes
Look away, look away-Look away to the day
The day of the Lord quickly comes
