Author: Reginald Heber Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 188 hymnals First Line: The Lord will come! the Earth shall quake Lyrics: 1. The Lord will come! the earth shall quake;
The hills their fixed seat forsake,
And with'ring from the vault of night,
The stars withdraw their feeble light.
2. The Lord will come! but not the same
As once in lowly form he came,
A silent Lamb to slaughter led,
The bruised, the suff'ring, and the dead.
3. The Lord shall come! in dreadful form,
With wreath of flame and robe of storm,
On cherub-wings, and wings of wind,
Anointed Judge of human-kind.
4. Go, tyrants! to the rocks complain!
Go, seek the mountain's cleft in vain!
But faith, victorious o'er the tomb,
Shall sing for joy, The Lord has come! Topics: Resurrection Scripture: Revelation 22:20 Used With Tune: BROOKFIELD
