Let me go, the day is breaking; Dear companions, let me go; We have spent a night of waking In the wilderness below. chorus: Dear companions, weep not so, If you love me, let me go, Dear companions, weep not so, If you love me, let me go. Let me go, I may not tarry Wrestling thus with doubts and fears; Angels wait, my soul to carry Where the risen Lord appears. (chorus) We have traveled long together, Hand in hand, and heart in heart, Both thro' calm and stormy weather, And 'tis heard, 'tis hard to part. (chorus) Heaven's broad day hathe o;er me broken, Far beyond earth's span of sky, I am dead; nay, by this token, Know that I have ceased to die. (chorus)
