Our Bridegroom soon is coming
|
|
| 1. | Our Bridegroom soon is coming |
| | To claim His holy Bride, |
| | The one whom He has wooed, won, |
| | And wholly sanctified. |
| | O Lord, we would be ready |
| | And get our hearts in tune |
| | For the wedding day that's coming |
| | Very soon. |
| | Oh, the wedding day is coming, |
| | Is coming very soon, |
| | When the Bride shall be prepared |
| | And shall marry her Bridegroom. |
| | Oh, what love and consecration |
| | Should all our hearts attune |
| | For that wedding that's coming |
| | Very soon. |
| 2. | Oh, that fine linen garment |
| | Which on that day we'll wear |
| | E'en now, Lord, work within us |
| | And stitch by stitch prepare. |
| | For this we would redeem |
| | Every moment opportune |
| | For the wedding day that's coming |
| | Very soon. |
| 3. | Lord, may Your portion in us |
| | Continually increase |
| | That we may be invited |
| | Unto that wedding feast. |
| | And keep us always watching- |
| | At morning, night, or noon- |
| | For the wedding day that's coming |
| | Very soon. |
