They Are Coming with Songs

Author: Mary D. James Hymnal: Timeless Truths #846 Meter: 7.7.9.7.7.9 with refrain Refrain First Line: They are coming, coming Lyrics: 1 They are coming with songs, The victorious throng, Lo! up to Mount Zion they come; With joy they are crowned, Oh, what blessings abound In the way to their glorious home. Refrain: They are coming, coming, The ransomed of the Lord, And Jesus, His banner o’er them spreads; They are coming, coming, Coming with songs, And everlasting joy upon their heads. 2 Though rough is their path, How unwav’ring their faith; Though fearful the foe in their way, Still singing they come Up to Zion their home, And they triumph in Christ day by day. [Refrain] 3 Oh, well may they sing, For the Spirit doth bring Rich foretastes of bliss as they go; And earnest is giv’n, And the glory of Heav’n Makes bright all their pathway below. [Refrain] 4 Sing on, happy throng, For your jubilant song Is the wonderful story of grace— It tells of the blood Of the crucified Lord, And bestows on the Lamb all the praise. [Refrain] Topics: Restoration Scripture: Isaiah 35:10 Tune Title: [They are coming with songs]
