Lo! He comes, with clouds descending
1
Lo! He comes, with clouds descending,Once for favored sinners slain;Countless angels, him attending,Swell the triumph of his train:Hallelujah!Jesus comes, and comes to reign,Hallelujah!Jesus comes, and comes to reign.
2
Every eye shall now behold himRobed in dreadful majesty!Those who set at naught and sold him,Pierced, and nailed him to the tree,Deeply wailing,Shall the true Messiah see!
3
When the solemn trump has sounded,Heaven and earth shall flee away;All who hate him, must, confounded,Hear the summons of that day,—"Come to Judgment!Come to Judgment! Come away!"
4
Yea, amen! let all adore thee,High on thy eternal throne!Saviour, take the power and glory,Make thy righteous sentence known;O come quickly,Claim the kingdom for thine own!
