Text Information:
"And the Lord Whom ye seek shall suddenly come to His Temple."
The germ of this Hymn we owe to CENNICK, who published (Dublin, 1752) "A Collection of Sacred Hymns," in which was one entitled "Lo! He cometh; countless trumpets." This suggested to WESLEY the four stanzas given on p. 157 [# 188], and these were finally altered by MADAN to the form her given, which is in general use.
