Reformed Press Hymnal ‎#147

147. Is It The Crowning Day?

1 Jesus may come today,
Glad day, Glad day!
And I would see my Friend;
Dangers and troubles would end
If Jesus should come today.

Refrain:
Glad day, Glad day!
Is it the crowning day?
I'll live for today, nor anxious be;
Jesus, my Lord I soon shall see.
Glad day, Glad day!
Is it the crowning day?

2 I may go home today,
Glad day, Glad day!
Seemeth I hear their song;
Hail to the radiant throng!
If I should go home today. [Refrain]

3 Why should I anxious be?
Glad day, Glad day!
Lights appear on the shore,
Storms will affright nevermore,
For He is "at hand" today. [Refrain]

4 Faithful I'll be today,
Glad day, Glad day!
And I will freely tell
Why I should love Him so well,
For He is my all today. [Refrain]
