155 - He Is Coming Again

Lift up your heads, pilgrims a-weary, See day’s approach now crimson the sky; Night shadows flee, and your Beloved, Awaited with longing, at last draweth nigh.

He is coming again, He is coming again, The very same Jesus, rejected of men; He is coming again, He is coming again, With power and great glory, He is coming again!

Dark was the night,-- sin warred against us; Heavy the load of sorrow we bore; But now we see, signs of His coming;-- Our hearts glow within us, joy’s cup runneth o’er!

He is coming again, He is coming again, The very same Jesus, rejected of men; He is coming again, He is coming again, With power and great glory, He is coming again!

O blessed hope! O blissful promise! Filling our hearts with rapture divine; O day of days! Hail Thy appearing! Thy transcendent glory forever shall shine.

He is coming again, He is coming again, The very same Jesus, rejected of men; He is coming again, He is coming again, With power and great glory, He is coming again!

Even so, come, precious Lord Jesus; Creation waits redemption to see; Caught up in clouds, soon we shall meet Thee;-- O blessed assurance, forever with Thee!

He is coming again, He is coming again, The very same Jesus, rejected of men; He is coming again, He is coming again, With power and great glory, He is coming again!
