The All-in-All

lyricist: Gilchrist Lawson, 1911
Composer: Charles Gabriel

He is com­ing again with great glo­ry and pow­er

To reign on this earth as the King ov­er all;

And the na­tions shall bend

’Neath the sway of His rod

And the de­sert re­joice at the pre­sence of God.

And the pow­ers of dark­ness shall crum­ble and fall;

In the glo­ri­ous light of the ALL-IN-ALL;

In the glo­ri­ous light

in the glo­ri­ous light

In the glo­ri­ous light of the ALL-IN-ALL.

When His right­eous­ness cov­ers this earth as a sea

No sor­row or care then shall bur­den the soul;

At His pre­sence the hills shall re­joice and be glad

And not one in the bounds of His realm shall be sad.

All of sin and of sick­ness shall van­ish away

The heav’ns shall be seen com­ing down as the dew

At the pre­sence of Him

the Al­migh­ty and King

All the co­horts of earth shall break forth and shall sing.

Neither weep­ing nor death

Then will mar the fair scene;

No more shall the ter­rors of Sa­tan ap­pall;

Our re­joic­ing in Je­sus will then be com­plete

For His en­emies all shall be un­der His feet.

Then fare­well to all sin let us joy­ful­ly say

Farewell to its plea­sures

fare­well to its mirth;

All its fol­lies and joys then as no­thing shall be

When the Lord in His glo­ry and beau­ty we see.
