Victorious Life Hymns ‎#64

64. Thou Art Coming!

1 Thou art coming, O my Saviour,
Thou art coming! O my King,
Every tongue Thy name confessing,
Well may we rejoice and sing;
Thou art coming! rays of glory,
Through the veil Thy death has rent,
Gladden, now our pilgrim pathway,
Glory from Thy presence sent.

Refrain:
Thou art coming! Thou art Coming!
We shall meet Thee on Thy way,
Thou art coming! we shall see Thee,
And be like Thee on that day;
Thou art coming! Thou art coming!
Jesus our beloved Lord,
O the joy to see Thee reigning,
Worshipped, glorified, adored.

2 Thou art coming, not a shadow,
Not a mist and not a tear,
Not a sin and not a sorrow,
On that sunrise grand and clear;
Thou art coming! Jesus Saviour,
Nothing else seems worth a thought,
Oh, how marvelous the glory,
And the bliss Thy pain hath bought. [Refrain]

3 Thou art coming, we are waiting
With a hope that cannot fail,
Asking not the day or hour,
Anchored safe within the veil;
Thou art coming! at Thy table
We are witnesses for this,
As we meet Thee in communion,
Earnest of our coming bliss. [Refrain]
