the message of his coming

We’re looking for His coming, in the clouds of heaven, Coming back to
earth to catch away His own;
Then may we all be ready, when midnight cry
is given, To go and reign with Christ on His throne.

CHORUS
Gladly may we herald the
message of His blessed appearing,
Soon He’s coming in glory, tell to one and all;
Then awake, ye saints of the
Lord, why slumber when the end
is nearing,
But get ready for the final call.


We’re longing for the glory that awaits the faithful, Who shall overcome, and
every conflict win;
Press ever bravely
onward, the prize is life eternal To all who win the fight over sin.

We’re praying for the advent of our blessed Saviour, Who has promised
life to all who trust His grace;
His coming now is pending, the message
being given.
And soon we’ll see our
Lord face to face.

We see the signs appearing of His blessed coming, Lo, behold the fig
leaves now becoming green;
The gospel of His kingdom has gone to
every nation;
that we are near the end can be seen.
