Text:Lo He Comes in Clouds Descending
Tune:[Lo He comes in clouds descending]

45. Lo He Comes in Clouds Descending

1. Lo He comes with clouds descending
Once for mortal sinners slain
Thousand, thousand Saints attending
Swell the triumph of His train
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah,
Christ appears on earth again.

2. Lo He cometh– countless trumpets
Wake to life the slumb'ring dead,
'Mid ten thousand Saints and angels
See their great exalted head
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah,
Welcome great exalted head.

3. Come ye blessed of my Father
Enter into life and joy
Banish all your fears and sorrow
Endless praise be your employ
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah,
Welcome, welcome, to the skies.

4. Yea, Amen, let all adore Thee
High on thine eternal throne
Savior take the pow'r and glory
Claim the Kingdom for thine own
Men and angels, Men and angels, Men and angels,
Kneel and bow to Thee alone.
