1158. We shall see a light appear

1 We shall see a light appear,
By and by, when he comes;
We shall see a light appear
When he comes;

Chorus:
Ride on, Jesus,
O ride on;
We are on our journey home.

2 We shall see him as he is,
By and by, when he comes;
We shall see him as he is
When he comes. [Chorus]

3 We shall have a mighty shout,
By and by, when he comes:
We shall have a mighty shout
When he comes. [Chorus]

4 We shall all with Christ appear,
By and by, when he comes;
We shall all with Christ appear
When he comes. [Chorus]

5 Then the earth will all be cleansed
By and by, when he comes;
Then the earth will all be cleansed
When he comes. [Chorus]
