155. What If It Were Today?

1 Jesus is coming to earth again—
What if it were today?
In a dark hour we know not when—
What if it were today?
Coming to claim His chosen Bride,
All the redeemed and purified
Over this whole earth scattered wide—
What if it were today?

Refrain:
Glory, glory!
Joy to my heart 'twill bring;
Glory, glory!
When we shall see our King;
Glory, glory!
Haste to prepare the way;
Glory. glory!
Jesus may come Today.

2 Sin's condemnation will then be o'er—
O that it were today!
Sorrow and sighing shall be no more—
O that it were today!
Then shall the dead in Christ arise,
Caught up to meet Him in the skies
When shall these glories meet our eyes?
What if it were today? [Refrain]

3 Faithful and true would He find us here
If He should come today?
Watching in gladness and not in fear,
If He should come today?
All of God's children then will fly,
To clouds of glory in the sky;
Watch, for the time is drawing nigh—
What if it were today? [Refrain]
