Lo, He Comes with Clouds Descending
Author: Charles Wesley; Martin Madan; John Cennick Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.7 Appears in 781 hymnals Topics: Everlasting Fellowship The Second Coming of Christ Lyrics: 1 Lo, He comes with clouds descending,
Once for favored sinners slain;
Thousand thousand saints attending,
Swell the triumph of His train.
Alleluia! Alleluia!
God appears on earth to reign.
2 Every eye shall now behold Him,
Robed in dreadful majesty!
Those who set at naught and sold Him,
Pierced and nailed Him to the tree,
Deeply wailing, deeply wailing,
Shall their true Messiah see.
3 Now the Savior, long-expected,
See in solemn pomp appear.
All His saints, by man rejected,
Now shall meet Him in the air.
Alleluia! Alleluia!
See the day of God appear.
4 Yea, amen! let all adore Thee,
High on Thine eternal throne.
Savior, take the pow'r and glory;
Claim the kingdom for Thine own.
O come quickly! O come quickly!
Everlasting God, come down! Used With Tune: REGENT SQUARE

At the Name of Jesus
Author: Caroline M. Noel Meter: 6.5.6.5 D Appears in 260 hymnals Topics: Everlasting Fellowship The Second Coming of Christ Lyrics: 1 At the name of Jesus
Every knee shall bow,
Every tongue confess Him
King of Glory now.
’Tis the Father’s pleasure
We should call Him Lord,
Who from the beginning
Was the mighty Word.
2 Humbled for a season
To receive a name
From the lips of sinners
Unto whom He came;
Faithfully He bore it,
Spotless to the last,
Brought it back victorious
When from death He passed.
3 In your hearts enthrone Him;
There let Him remove
All that is not holy,
All that is not true.
Crown Him as your captain
In temptation's hour;
Let His will enfold you
In its light and pow'r.
4 Watch, for this Lord Jesus
Shall return again
In His Father's glory,
O'er the earth to reign;
For the day is coming
When each knee shall bow,
And our hearts confess Him
King of Glory now.

Last Judgment
Author: W. Gadsby Hymnal: A Selection of Hymns for Public Worship. In four parts (10th ed.) (Gadsby's Hymns) #666 (1844) Topics: The Second Coming of Christ and Last Judgment First Line: With great and awful power Lyrics: 1 With great and awful power,
Jesus, the Judge, shall come,
To bid his foes depart,
And take his children home;
How will the wicked quake and fear,
When they before him must appear.
2 He comes, the world to judge,
Nor will he take a bribe;
His wrath none can escape,
But his beloved bride;
Millions will unto mountains call,
To hide them and upon them fall.
3 Poor soul, what is thy hope?
On what dost thou depend?
Art thou a stranger still
To Christ, the sinner’s Friend?
Soon thou must leave thy all below,
And then, O then, what wilt thou do?
4 Christians, lift up your heads;
Say, what has Jesus done?
His matchless grace to you
The Saviour has made known;
Yes, you shall all his glory see,
And from the second death be free. Languages: English

Henry Thomas Smart
1813 - 1879 Person Name: Henry T. Smart Topics: Everlasting Fellowship The Second Coming of Christ Composer of "REGENT SQUARE" in The Celebration Hymnal Henry Smart (b. Marylebone, London, England, 1813; d. Hampstead, London, 1879), a capable composer of church music who wrote some very fine hymn tunes (REGENT SQUARE, 354, is the best-known).
Smart gave up a career in the legal profession for one in music. Although largely self taught, he became proficient in organ playing and composition, and he was a music teacher and critic. Organist in a number of London churches, including St. Luke's, Old Street (1844-1864), and St. Pancras (1864-1869), Smart was famous for his extemporizations and for his accompaniment of congregational singing. He became completely blind at the age of fifty-two, but his remarkable memory enabled him to continue playing the organ. Fascinated by organs as a youth, Smart designed organs for important places such as St. Andrew Hall in Glasgow and the Town Hall in Leeds. He composed an opera, oratorios, part-songs, some instrumental music, and many hymn tunes, as well as a large number of works for organ and choir. He edited the Choralebook (1858), the English Presbyterian Psalms and Hymns for Divine Worship (1867), and the Scottish Presbyterian Hymnal (1875). Some of his hymn tunes were first published in Hymns Ancient and Modern (1861).
