12781. I Know My Lord Will Come

1 I know my Lord will come, His promise is secure;
I know my Lord will come, He saves forevermore;
I know my Lord will come, He died to set me free;
I know my Lord will come, my Savior’s face I’ll see.

Refrain:
I know my Lord will come, my Prophet, Priest and King;
I know my Lord will come, I hear the angels sing;
I know my Lord will come, He’ll take me to His throne;
I know my Lord will come, to bear my spirit home.

2 I know my Lord will come, the Bible tells me so;
I know my Lord will come, to satisfy the poor;
I know my Lord will come, to set His loved ones free;
I know my Lord will come, to plead for you and me. [Refrain]

3 I know my Lord will come, to make the wounded whole;
I know my Lord will come, to cure the sin-sick soul;
I know my Lord will come, His promise to fulfill;
I know my Lord will come, because He loves me still. [Refrain]

4 I know my Lord will come, He says to you and me:
Be faithful unto death, life’s crown I’ll give to thee;
I know my Lord will come, I love no more to roam;
I know my Lord will come, to take redeemed ones home. [Refrain]
