219 ~ When Jesus Comes in Glory


1

When Jesus comes in glory, As Lord and King of kings, O what a wondrous story The blessed Bible brings: His face will shine like sunlight, His head be white as snow, His eyes like flaming firelight, His feet like brass aglow.

2

His voice like rushing waters Will reach with mighty sound Into the deepest quarters Of all creation round; And at this wondrous greeting The dead in Christ shall rise, Their Lord and Savior meeting In glory in the skies.

3

And we who are believing And His appearing love, Shall know we are receiving His glory from above; His resurrection power Will raise us to the place Where we that wondrous hour Shall see Him face to face.

4

O hasten Thine appearing, Thou bright and Morning Star! Lord, may we soon be hearing The trumpet sound afar; Thy people all are yearning To be Thy raptured bride, And at Thine own returning Be caught up to Thy side.
