He Is Coming Again (Camp)

Lift up your heads

pil­grims awea­ry

See day’s ap­proach now crim­son the sky;

Night sha­dows flee

and your Be­lov­èd

Awaited with long­ing

at last draw­eth nigh.

He is com­ing again

He is com­ing again

The very same Je­sus

re­ject­ed of men;

He is com­ing again

He is com­ing again

With pow­er and great glo­ry

He is com­ing again!

Dark was the night

sin warred against us;

Heavy the load of sor­row we bore;

But now we see signs of His com­ing;

Our hearts glow with­in us

joy’s cup run­neth o’er!

O bless­èd hope! O bliss­ful pro­mise!

Filling our hearts with rap­ture di­vine;

O day of days! Hail Thy ap­pear­ing!

Thy trans­cend­ent glo­ry for­ev­er shall shine.

Even so

come

pre­cious Lord Je­sus;

Creation waits re­demp­tion to see;

Caught up in clouds

soon we shall meet Thee;

O bless­èd as­sur­ance

for­ev­er with Thee!
