157. Christ the Lord Is Coming

4-11s.
1
Christ the Lord is coming,
 
Coming very soon,
 
Suddenly some morning,
 
Eve, or night, or noon.
 
Quickly, in a moment,
 
Saints shall quit the earth;
 
See Him in His beauty,
 
Glory, grace and worth.
2
Then — oh, wondrous blessing!
 
They shall be like Him;
 
Nevermore have sorrow,
 
Ever free from sin.
 
Then with Him in glory
 
Brightly they shall shine;
 
Know His love more fully — 
 
Love so true, divine!
