The Master is coming, he's coming for thee

Author: G. W. Page Appears in 3 hymnals First Line: These words, said the Master, "I'm coming again" Lyrics: 1 These words, said the Master, "I'm coming again," That with me my people forever may reign; That they may be ready my coming to see, I send forth my angels with messages three. Chorus: The Master is coming, he's coming for thee; O haste to be ready thy Master to see! The Master is coming, he's coming for thee; O haste to be ready thy Master to see! 2 The first with this message was sent through the land; "Fear God, and give glory; his Judgment's at hand; And worship the Maker of earth, sea, and sky, And the fountains of waters, who ruleth on high." [Chorus] 3 The second this message of woe did repeat: "The Church is not ready her Master to greet; She's fallen, backslidden, departed from Heav'n, And her love to earth's kings has unlawfully giv'n." [Chorus] 4 The third message follows, the last to be given, To point, once again, dying sinners to heav'n: "If any the beast or his image adore, On him shall God's judgments abide evermore." [Chorus] 5 The law of the Father, the faith of the Son, Must be kept by the Church all united as one; The mark of rebellion refuse to receive, Be sealed with God's seal, and eternally live. [Chorus] Topics: Bible Songs Judgment and Second Advent Scripture: Revelation 14:6-12 Used With Tune: THE THREE MESSAGES
