He Is Coming, Surely Coming

lyricist: Civilla Martin, 1911
Composer: Charles Ackerman

He may come in the ear­ly morn­ing

He may come at the noon­tide hour;

Our Re­deem­er is sure­ly com­ing

Clothed with glo­ry and match­less pow­er.

He is com­ing

sure­ly com­ing

Coming as He once as­cend­ed to the sky;

O be rea­dy for that time

For the glo­ry

grand

sub­lime

For the com­ing of the Sav­ior draw­eth nigh.

He may come when the shades of ev­en­ing

Mark the time of the set­ting sun;

Are you rea­dy to meet the Sav­ior?

Will He greet you with His well done?

Our Re­deem­er is sure­ly com­ing

Not as Sav­ior

the cross to bear;

But as king of eter­nal ag­es;

Are you rea­dy to meet Him there?
