187 ~ The Lord Is Coming

1

The Lord is coming! let this be The herald note of jubilee; And when we meet, and when we part The salutation from the heart.

2

The Lord is coming! sound it forth, From east to west, from south to north; Speed on! speed on the tidings glad, That none who love Him may be sad.

3

The Lord is coming! saints, rejoice! We soon shall hear His glorious voice, Majestic, uttered from afar, As on He hastes His conquering car.

4

The Lord is coming! vengeful, dire, Are all His judgments and His ire, And none can hope to escape His wrath, Who walk not in the narrow path.
