He is coming—who is coming?
Is it one whom I shall fear?
No! the blessed, kind Lord Jesus,
He who suffered for me here;
He is coming!
In the clouds He will appear.
O, how happy! Those who love Him
All His beauty then shall see;
And the glorious sight will make them
Bright and beautiful as He.
In a moment
Like their Saviour they shall be.
He will take them up to heaven
From this world and sin apart,
There His Father will receive them
To His home and to His heart;
In His glory,
Never more from Him to part.
Happy children who are waiting,
For that bright and joyful day!
Knowing Jesus as their Saviour,
They can watch for Him and say,
“Come, Lord Jesus!
Take Thy little ones away.”
