Author: Edwin Smith Ufford Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #12943 First Line: Watch ye and wait, O brethren of God Refrain First Line: Wait! wait! Jesus will come Lyrics: 1 Watch ye and wait, O brethren of God,
Wait for the coming of Jesus our Lord;
Ages have passed, yet bright grows the dawn,
Jesus has promised to come in the morn.
Refrain:
Wait! wait! Jesus will come,
Soon will our bridegroom descend from His throne;
Wait! wait! Jesus will come,
Jesus is coming again to His own.
2 Steadfastly wait, and patiently pray,
Thus did our fathers who wished for the day;
Cheerful they toiled and calmly did die,
Waiting for Jesus to come from the sky. [Refrain]
3 Some day the sky will part like a scroll,
Over the earth will the judgment trump roll;
But to the saints ’twill happiness bring,
Since they have waited so long for their king. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: [Watch ye and wait, O brethren of God]
Wait! Wait! Jesus Will Come!
