85. Hark! the Blest Tidings

1 Hark! hark! hear the blest tidings;
Soon, soon Jesus will come,
Robed, robed in honor and glory,
To gather his ransomed ones home.
Yes, yes, O yes,
To gather his ransomed ones home.

2 Joy, joy, sound it more loudly;
Sing, sing, glory to God:
Soon, soon, Jesus is coming;
Publish the tidings abroad.
Yes, yes, O yes,
To gather his ransomed ones home.

3 Still, still, rest on the promise;
Cling, cling fast to his word:
Wait, wait, if he should tarry,
We'll patiently wait for the Lord.
Yes, yes, O yes,
To gather his ransomed ones home.
