550. Lift Up the Trumpet

1 Lift up the trumpet and loud let it ring:
Jesus is coming again!
Take heart, ye pilgrims, rejoice now and sing:
Jesus is coming again!
Coming again, coming again,
Jesus is coming again!

2 Nations are angry--by this do we know:
Jesus is coming again!
Knowledge increases, men run to and fro:
Jesus is coming again!
Coming again, coming again,
Jesus is coming again!

3 Fierce fires and earthquakes confirm to the throng:
Jesus is coming again!
Tempests and whirlwinds the anthem prolong:
Jesus is coming again!
Jesus is coming again!
Coming again, coming again,
Jesus is coming again!

4 Shout from the hilltops the joyful refrain:
Jesus is coming again!
Coming in glory the Lamb that was slain:
Jesus is coming again!
Coming again, coming again,
Jesus is coming again!
