The Lord Is Coming

Author: Daniel S. Warner Hymnal: Timeless Truths #13 Meter: 9.7.9.7 with refrain First Line: Are you ready, waiting for the Lord? Refrain First Line: Thou art coming, O my Savior Lyrics: 1 Are you ready, waiting for the Lord? See, the signs proclaim Him near, In the awful thunders of His word, Now His coming steps we hear. Refrain: Thou art coming, O my Savior, Who can stand Thy flaming light? Now the burning of Thy Spirit Sweeps away the words of night; Quickly coming in Thy glory, With Thy bright, angelic train, We shall see Thee in Thy beauty, And forever with Thee reign. 2 Now are many running to and fro, Spreading holiness around, And the evening light begins to glow— Soon we’ll hear the trumpet’s sound. [Refrain] 3 Hark! the solemn warning unto all, Judgment’s coming, oh, how soon; Flee, O man, at Mercy’s final call, Heaven trembles at your doom. [Refrain] 4 As the lightning flashes east to west, Comes the Lord in flaming fire; Oh, what glory thrills each holy breast! Sinners melt beneath His ire. [Refrain] 5 Christ is coming, oh, the heav’nly sight! Our Beloved can’t delay, For His bride is robed in snowy white, Ready for that glorious day. [Refrain] Scripture: Matthew 24:30 Tune Title: [Are you ready, waiting for the Lord?]

Luther B. Bridgers

1884 - 1948 Meter: 9.7.9.7 with refrain Author of "There's Within My Heart a Melody" in The United Methodist Hymnal Luther Burgess Bridgers Born at Margarettsville, NC, son of a minister who conducted revival meetings, he assisted his father conducting meetings (1904-1913). He attended Asbury College at Wilmore, KY, and met his wife, Sarah Jane (Sallie) Veatch in 1905 while there. They had three sons: Luther Hughes, Allen Veatch, and James Marvin. He pastored Methodist Episcopal congregations in KY, NC, and GA, first pastoring in Perry, FL, before doing evangelistic work. He evangelized in the southern U S. He was also known for his fine singing voice and would sing at each meeting. Tragedy struck while he was conducting a revival in Middlesboro, KY, in 1911. Having left his wife and three sons to visit his wife’s parents while he was away, he learned that they had all perished in a house fire. In 1914 he remarried to Aline Winburn, and they had a son, Luther B Jr. After WW1 he took part in missionary outreaches to Belgium, Czechoslovakia, Poland and Russia. He often spoke to large crowds and saw many come to Christ. In 1914 he was also named ‘General Evangelist’ of his denomination. In 1921 Asbury College awarded him an honorary DD degree for his evangelistic efforts. He pastored at several Methodist churches in the Atlanta, GA, area, then briefly at a Methodist church at Morehead, NC. After his long ministry, ending in 1945, he retired and moved to Gainesville, GA, where he eventually died. He was known as ‘Melody Man’. He penned a number of hymns, eight of which were published in Charlie Tillman’s ‘The Revival No. 6’. His most famous, noted below, borrowed a tune from a popular song of the time, ‘Melody of Love’.
