1 He comes! he comes! the Judge severe!
The seventh trumpet speaks him near;
His lightnings flash, his thunders roll,
How welcome to the faithful soul,
Welcome, welcome, welcome, welcome,
Welcome to the faithful soul.
2 From heav'n angelic voices sound,
See the almighty Jesus crown'd!
Girt with omnipotence and grace,
And glory decks the Saviour's face,
Glory, glory, glory, glory,
Glory decks the Saviour's face!
3 Descending on his azure throne,
He claims the kingdoms for his own;
The kingdoms all obey his word,
And hail him their triumphant Lord:
Hail him, hail him, hail him, hail him,
Hail him their triumphant Lord.
4 Shout all the people of the sky,
And all the saints of the most high:
Our God who now his Right obtains
Forever and forever reigns;
Ever, ever, ever, ever,
Ever and forever reigns.
5 The Father praise, the Son adore,
The Spirit bless forever more:
Salvation's glorious work is done
We welcome thee great three in one!
Welcome, welcome, welcome, welcome,
Welcome thee great three in one.
