Lord, Thou wilt soon appear,
|
|
| 1. | Lord, Thou wilt soon appear, |
| | Thy day is almost here. |
| | Oh, how we love Thy coming soon! |
| | We have no other |
| | Lord, life, or lover |
| | Than Thou, Lord Jesus, our Bridegroom! |
| 2. | The hour is drawing nigh, |
| | Soon we shall hear Thy cry |
| | And see Thee in the clouds descend. |
| | Oh what and hour sweet |
| | When Bride and Bridegroom meet |
| | And love surpassing comprehend. |
| 3. | The moments fly apace, |
| | Soon we shall see Thy face! |
| | Amen, Lord Jesus! Quickly come! |
| | We long Thyself to see |
| | And with Thee ever be, |
| | Thou who our inmost heart hath won. |
| | 'Tis but a moment now; |
| | Thou our Lord Bridegroom, Thou |
| | Soon wilt return to claim Thy Bride. |
| | O Hallelujah! |
| | 'Tis this we long for, |
| | And Thou too wilt be satisfied. |
