Jesus Is Coming Again (Simpson)

Jesus is com­ing again

they say

Coming to end our sor­row;

Coming again some glo­ri­ous day

Coming

per­haps to­mor­row.

What are you do­ing

my bro­ther

I pray?

What are you do­ing His com­ing to bring?

What are you do­ing from day to day

To hast­en the com­ing of the King?

Have you been robed in the rai­ment white

And are your lights all burn­ing

Oil in your lamps

and all things right

Ready for His re­turn­ing?

Have you been watch­ing while oth­ers slept

Faithful tho’ faint and wea­ry?

Have you been seek­ing the oth­er sheep

Out on the mount­ains drea­ry?

Have you been send­ing abroad the light

Telling the old

old sto­ry

Hasting to bring with all your might

Christ and His com­ing king­dom?
