He is Surely Coming

Author: F. M. Atkinson Appears in 3 hymnals First Line: Soon the night of gloom will vanish Refrain First Line: Yes, our Lord is surely coming Lyrics: 1 Soon the night of gloom will vanish, And the morning dawn appear; When the Lord of glory cometh, And His coming draweth near; With an upward gaze we’re watching For His coming back again; And with rapture we shall meet Him, Evermore with Him to reign. Chorus: Yes, our Lord is surely coming, And with joy we’ll gladly meet Him, And with rapture we shall see Him, On that crowning day. 2 On that long expected hour, When he cleaves the vaulted sky; To immortal He will change us, In the twinkling of an eye; Then the graves of saints will open, And “the dead in Christ” shall rise; With the saints alive they’ll gather, Meet the Savior in the skies. [Chorus] 3 When this mortal flesh shall vanish, All immortal we shall be; Rise to worlds of light and beauty, Thro’out all eternity; All the pow’rs of hell defeated, Swallowed up in victory; We shall reign with Him in glory, Kings and priests forever be. [Chorus] Used With Tune: [Soon the night of gloom will vanish]
