Composer:T. E. Perkins

155. Jesus Will Come

1 How bright that blessed hope!
Jesus will come!
Let us our heads lift up,
Jesus will come!
Morning so bright and clear,
Mansions of God appear,
Sin shall not enter there,
Jesus will come!

2 Him every eye shall see,
Jesus will come!
Bright will the glory be,
Jesus will come!
Soon shall the trumpet speak,
Each sleeping saint awake,
And the glad morning break,
Jesus will come!

3 Full of this blessed hope!
Jesus will come!
Let us the cross take up,
Jesus will come!
Happy, reproach to bear,
Shame, for his sake, to share,
Since we our crown shall wear,
Jesus will come!
