323. The Lord Himself Shall Come

S.M.
by J. Montgomery, v. 3 J.N. Darby
1
The Lord Himself shall come,
 
And shout a quickening word;
 
Thousands shall answer from the tomb:
 
"Forever with the Lord!"
2
Then, as we upward fly,
 
That resurrection word
 
Shall be our shout of victory:
 
"Forever with the Lord!"
3
There with unwearied gaze
 
Our eyes on Him we’ll rest,
 
And satisfy with endless praise
 
A heart supremely blest.
4
"Knowing as we are known!"
 
How shall we love that word,
 
How oft repeat before the throne:
 
"Forever with the Lord!"
5
That resurrection word,
 
That shout of victory — 
 
Once more: "Forever with the Lord!"
 
Amen, so let it be!
