Hail! Glorious King!

Jesus is coming: the time draw­eth nigh;

Rapturous songs to Him we shall sing;

When He des­cends in the clouds of the sky—

Hail Him our glor­ious King.

Shout Hal­lelujah! the Sav­ior is coming!

Jesus

our bless­èd Re­deem­er is com­ing!

Soon He’ll ap­pear

and like Him we shall be

To all eter­ni­ty.

Jesus is com­ing: let glad­ness abound —

Song of His prais­es—Heav’n’s sweet­est strain;

Soon we shall hear as the trump­et’s clear sound

Tells that He’s come to reign.

Jesus is com­ing: the skies soon will rend —

Angelic hosts with Him we shall see;

Dead saints shall rise and with us shall as­cend

Ever with Christ to be.

Jesus is com­ing: O hast­en to tell

Salvation’s tid­ings to ev­ery soul;

Millions

with us

shall His grand prais­es swell

While count­less age­s roll.
