Jesus Is Coming (Sederquist)

Jesus is com­ing

tell the glad sto­ry;

Ring out the mes­sage

swell the re­frain;

Coming with an­gels

com­ing in glo­ry;

Coming on earth

then for­ev­er to reign:

Hope of the ag­es

and joy of the faith­ful

Long by the pro­phets of Is­ra­el fore­told

Regal in splen­dor

trans­cend­ent in beau­ty

King of the saints

and Judge of the world.

Jesus is com­ing

morn­ing is break­ing

See o’er the hill­tops gleams of the day;

Shadows are flee­ing

nations are wak­ing

Armed for the con­flict in bat­tle ar­ray;

Onward to vic­to­ry

Thou Prince of sal­va­tion

Sound the last trum­pet

re-ec­ho the call;

Strike in Thy pow­er

Thou stone of the mount­ain

Kingdoms of earth

and rule ov­er­all.

Jesus is com­ing

judg­ment is near­ing;

Hasten

dear sin­ner

do not de­lay;

Yield to Him now

then at His ap­pear­ing

You will es­cape from the wrath of that day;

List to His plead­ing in tones of com­pas­sion;

Look to Gol­go­tha

for you there He died;

Streams of sal­va­tion abun­dant are flow­ing

Fresh from His feet

His hands and His side.

If you re­ject Him

how will you meet Him?

Think of the price He paid on the tree;

Where for thy par­don He gave full ran­som

That you from bond­age might ev­er be free;

Seek thro’ re­pent­ance the gate­way to Ed­en;

Bring your trans­gress­ions

tho’ crim­son they be;

He’ll not re­ject thee

He’s still in­ter­ced­ing;

Take the free grace He of­fers to thee.
