CLXXXVIII. The second coming of the Lord Jesus

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, 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, 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, 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,
For ever and forever reigns;
Ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever,
Ever, and for ever reigns.

5 The Father praise, the Son adore,
The Spirit bless for evermore:
Salvation's glorious work is done,
We welcome the great Three in One;
Welcome, welcome, welcome, welcome, welcome, welcome,
Welcome the great Three in One.
