Oh
the Lord is quickly coming
He has spoken in His Word;
And confirmed it by the churches
For His Spirit we have heard.
Not to all the seven churches
Did the Lord speak in this way;
To the church in Philadelphia
Did He choose these words to say.
Philadelphia
Church so full of brotherly love
You’re the church to bring the Bridegroom
Back to earth from heav’n above.
He that hath the key of David
He that shuts and opens too
Knows thy works
O Philadelphia;
That’s why you’re His Bride so true.
Not so strong by worldly standards
Hidden from religion’s fame;
Jesus loves you
For you’re faithful to His name.
By His Word you’re overcoming—
How the Amen does resound!
Just hold fast to what you’ve gotten
That no man may take your crown.
You have kept His Word of patience;
He will keep you from that hour
Which upon the whole world cometh
When the Lord comes in His power.
“I come quickly
” Philadelphia
Speaks the Lord to none but you;
“Amen! Quickly come
Lord Jesus
”
Answer back His faithful few.
