Author: Rev. John Brownlie Hymnal: The Hymnal #187 (1950) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 The King shall come when morning dawns,
And light triumphant breaks;
When beauty gilds the eastern hills,
And life to joy awakes.
2 Not as of old a little child
To bear, and fight, and die,
But crowned with glory like the sun
That lights the morning sky.
3 O brighter than the rising morn
When He, victorious, rose,
And left the lonesome place of death,
Despite the rage of foes—
4 O brighter than that glorious morn
Shall this fair morning be,
When Christ, our King, in beauty comes,
And we His face shall see!
5 The King shall come when morning dawns,
And light and beauty brings:
Hail, Christ the Lord! Thy people pray,
Come quickly, King of Kings!
Amen. Topics: Jesus Christ the Lord His Coming in Glory; Christ Second Coming, His; Coming in Glory Tune Title: ST. STEPHEN
