Lo, He Comes with Clouds Descending
Author: Martin Madan; Charles Wesley Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.7 Appears in 769 hymnals Topics: Ascension and Reign Lyrics: 1 Lo, He comes with clouds descending,
Once for favored sinners slain;
Thousand thousand saints attending
Swell the triumph of His train:
Alleluia! alleluia!
God appears on earth to reign.
2 Every eye shall now behold Him,
Robed in dreadful majesty;
Those who set at naught and sold Him,
Pierced and nailed Him to the tree,
Deeply wailing, deeply wailing,
Shall the true Messiah see.
3 Now redemption, long expected,
See in solemn pomp appear;
All His saints, by men rejected,
Now shall meet Him in the air:
Alleluia! alleluia!
See the day of God appear.
4 Yea, Amen! let all adore Thee,
High on Thine eternal throne;
Savior, take the pow'r and glory,
Claim the kingdom for Thine own:
O, come quickly, O, come quickly!
Everlasting God, come down.
Amen. Scripture: 1 Thessalonians 4:17 Used With Tune: REGENT SQUARE Text Sources: Based on John Cennick, 1752

Amidst His Father’s throne;
Prepare new honors for His name,
And songs before unknown,
And songs before unknown.

The church adore around;
With vials full of odors sweet,
And harps of sweeter sound,
And harps of sweeter sound.

And these the hymns they raise;
Jesus is kind to our complaints,
He loves to hear our praise,
He loves to hear our praise.

Be endless blessings paid:
Salvation, glory, joy remain
Forever, on thy head,
Forever on thy head.

Hast set the prisoners free;
Hast made us kings and priests to God,
And we shall reign with Thee,
And we shall reign with Thee. Used With Tune: MILES' LANE

O could I sound the glories forth
Which in my Savior shine,
I'd sing His glorious righteousness,
And magnify the wondrous grace
Which made salvation mine,
Which made salvation mine.

And all the forms of love He wears,
Exalted on His throne:
In loftiest songs of sweetest praise,
I would to everlasting days
Make all His glories known,
Make all His glories known.
3 Soon the delightful day will come
When my dear Lord will bring me home,
And I shall see His face;
Then with my Savior, Brother, Friend,
A blest eternity I'll spend,

Surpassing all the joys we know,
All that we can desire.

And ever in our lives express
The image of Thine own.
