I Shall Be Glad When Jesus Comes

lyricist: Robert Whitaker, 1896
Composer: Peter Bilhorn

I shall be glad when Je­sus comes

Come when or how He may

Glad when in ma­jes­ty He comes

Who shall set all things right.

I shall be glad when Je­sus comes

Jesus who died for me;

Oh

to be­hold Him on His throne

And all His glo­ry see.

I shall be glad to know the end

Of self­ish and sor­did might

Glad when in ma­jes­ty He comes

Who shall set all things right.

I shall be glad when Christ hath wrought

His glo­ri­ous will in me

When to the like­ness of His thought

I shall trans­fig­ured be.

Will you be glad when Je­sus comes?

Oh

sin­ner

what can you say?

Are you pre­pared to wel­come Him

And dwell with Christ for aye?

Will you be glad when Je­sus comes

Jesus of Cal­va­ry?

Would you be­hold Him on His throne

And all His glo­ry see?
