Lo, he comes, the King of glory

Hymnal: Hymns, Selected and Original #736 (1828) Meter: Irregular Lyrics: 1 Lo, he comes, the King of glory, With his chosen tribes to reign; Countless hosts of saints and angels Swell the mighty conq'ror's train: Now in triumph Sin and death are captive led. 2 See the rocks and mountains rending, All the nations fill'd with dread: Hark! the trump of God proclaiming Thro' the mansions of the dead, "Come to judgment," Stand before the Son of Man. 3 Hear the chief among ten thousand, Thus address his faithful few: "Come, ye blessed of my Father, Heaven is prepar'd for you: I was hungry, I was thirsty, And ye minister'd to me." 4 But how awful is the sentence, "Go from me, ye cursed race, To that place of endless torment, Never more to see my face. I was hungry, I was thirsty, Ye to me no mercy show'd." 5 Jesus, save a trembling sinner, While thy wrath o'er sinners roll: In this gen'ral wreck of nature, Be the refuge of my soul: Jesus, save me, Jesus save me, when the lightnings Blaze around from pole to pole.
