He comes, he comes, the Judge severe
New York
He comes, he comes, the Judge severe,The seventh Trumpet speaks him near ;His lightnings flash, His thunders roll—He's welcome to the faithful soul.Welcome, welcome, welcome, welcome,Welcome to the faithful soul.
Descending on his azure throneHe claims the kingdoms as his own.The kingdoms all obey his word,And hail him as their triumphant Lord.Welcome, welcome, welcome, welcome,Welcome to the faithful soul.
Shout, all ye angels of the sky,And all the saints of the Most High:Our God, who now his right obtains,For ever and forever reigns!Welcome, welcome, welcome, welcome,Welcome to the faithful soul.
The Father praise, the Son adore,The Spirit bless for evermore:Salvation's glorious work is done ;We welcome thee, great Three in One!Welcome, welcome, welcome, welcome,Welcome to the faithful soul.
