Lo! Jesus Comes

Author: Mrs. C. H. M. Hymnal: Songs of the Sanctuary #240 (1945) First Line: He comes, He comes, Lo! Jesus comes, the promised King of glory Refrain First Line: Then sing, O sing, ye ransomed, sing hallelujah Lyrics: 1 He comes, He comes, Lo! Jesus comes, the promised King of glory; The Hope of all the ages past, foretold in song and story; He comes the pris’ner to release; He comes, and wars and tumults cease; He comes to reign, the Prince of peace, Lo! Jesus comes. Chorus: Then sing, O sing, ye ransomed, sing hallelujah! Praise His name whom angels in glory adore; Hail, all hail the conquering Lion of Judah! He shall reign forever and evermore; Hail, all hail the conquering Lion of Judah! He shall reign forevermore. 2 O Church of God, awake, arise! the triumph day is nearing; Fresh oil into your vessels take, to greet your Lord’s appearing; That in His glory we may share, He bids us for the day prepare: God’s kingdom is at hand; declare, “Lo! Jesus comes.” [Chorus] 3 “Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done,” in ev’ry land and nation; And for this glorious time we look with eager expectation; Signs of His coming multiply; the morning breaks! the watchmen cry! “Amen, Amen;” Our hearts reply, “Lo! Jesus comes.” [Chorus] Languages: English Tune Title: [He comes, He comes, Lo! Jesus comes, the promised King of glory]
