Lyrics

Our Sav­ior will come
Once more up­on this earth,
Exalted on high
And not of low­ly birth;
He’ll ga­ther with Him
All those who love His name,
He’s com­ing, yes, com­ing again.

Refrain

He’s com­ing, I have so oft­en heard,
He’s com­ing, ’tis writ­ten in His Word;
He’s com­ing, we’ll sing the glad re­frain,
He’s com­ing, yes, com­ing again.

He’s com­ing again
With an­gels shin­ing bright,
In glo­ry so fair
From out the land of light;
Triumphant in pow’r,
To earth He will des­cend,
He’s com­ing, yes, com­ing again.

Refrain

He’s com­ing again
To judge the quick and dead,
The wick­ed shall flee
Before His face in dread;
The right­eous will shout
And praise His ho­ly name,
He’s com­ing, yes, com­ing again.

Refrain

He’s com­ing again,
We do not know the hour;
He told us to watch
And pray to Him for pow’r;
That, come when He may,
He’ll find us rea­dy then,
And wait­ing His com­ing again.

Refrain
