Christ Returneth!

[Play Midi]
- It may be at morn, when the day is awaking,
When sunlight thru darkness and shadow is breaking
That Jesus will come in the fullness of glory
To receive from the world His own.
- It may be at midday, it may be at twilight,
It may be, perchance, that the blackness of midnight
Will burst into light in the blaze of His glory,
When Jesus receives His own.
- While hosts cry Hosanna, from heaven descending
With glorified saints and the angels attending,
With grace on His brow, like a halo of glory,
Will Jesus receive His own.
- O joy! O delight! should we go without dying
No sickness, no sadness, no dread and no crying
Caught up thru the clouds with our Lord into glory
When Jesus receives His own.
Chorus:
O Lord Jesus, how long,
How long Ere we shout the glad song-
Christ returneth! Hallelujah!
Hallelujah! Amen.
Hallelujah! Amen.
