187. Jesus is Coming By and By

1 Hardened sinner boast no more,
Jesus is coming by and by,
Life's brief day will soon be o'er,
Jesus is coming by and by.

Refrain:
Jesus is coming by and by,
Jesus is coming by and by,
All His saints will rise to meet Him,
Jesus is coming by and by.

2 God in Judgment will appear,
Jesus is coming by and by,
Learn today His name to fear,
Jesus is coming by and by. [Refrain]

3 Saints of God, in patience wait,
Jesus is coming by and by,
Keep the path of truth so strait,
Jesus is coming by and by. [Refrain]

4 Never mind the world's dark frown,
Jesus is coming by and by,
Soon we'll tread the wicked down,
Jesus is coming by and by. [Refrain]
