1 There is coming a day
When the Lord will appear,
As written in words we are taught to believe,
With His presence divine,
And His angels of light,
The glory of which it is vain to conceive.

Refrain:
Coming, yes, coming; coming, yes, coming;
There’s coming a day when the Lord will appear,
Coming, yes, coming; coming, yes, coming;
There’s coming a day when the Lord will appear.

2 Then the ocean will roar,
And the elements melt,
And all that is earthly forever be gone;
Then the trumpet will sound
Till the dead shall awake,
That all may behold the millennial morn. [Refrain]

3 There is coming a day
When the Lord will appear,
Revealing His pow’r and fulfilling His word.
O ye children of light
Who are waiting in faith,
Be ready to welcome the day of the Lord. [Refrain]
