We Know He’s Coming

O long­ing soul

be not dis­mayed

Thou shalt see Je­sus from on high;

E’en tho’ His com­ing be de­layed

He’s sure­ly com­ing by and by.

We know He’s com­ing by and by;

We know He’s com­ing by and by;

In the clouds of His love

He is com­ing from ab­ove

We know He’s com­ing by and by.

The cloud that hides the Sav­ior’s face

And wraps the earth in dark­est night

Shall roll away

and in its place

Shall dawn a glo­ri­ous morn­ing light.

He’ll bring our loved ones back when He

Shall in His glo­ry come again;

We’ll be with them eter­nal­ly

And with our Sav­ior too shall reign.

Then watch and wait till He shall come

For our re­demp­tion then shall be;

Then He’ll re­ceive us in that home

That home that lasts eter­nal­ly.
