He’s Coming This Way

lyricist: R. F. Chalk, 1902
Composer: George Sederquist

Jesus is com­ing

shout the glad song

Radiant with glo­ry

fair as the morn

Down from His Fa­ther’s glo­ri­ous throne

Coming in tri­umph

claim­ing His own.

Yes

He is com­ing

com­ing this way;

Surely He’s com­ing

’tis most break of day;

Watching and wait­ing

life’s work all done

Take us

dear Sav­ior

safe to our home.

None but the right­eous

robed in pure white

Ever shall gaze on Him with de­light

None but the ran­somed

spot­less and clean

Ever shall in Christ’s king­dom be seen.

Loved ones who sleep in death’s cold em­brace

Waiting in hope shall see His dear face

When they awake from death and the grave

Rise shout­ing

Vict’ry! Migh­ty to save.

O how our hearts will thrill with de­light

When we are thro’ with earth’s drea­ry night

Safe in the har­bor

life’s storms all past

Jesus has come

and we’re home at last.
