Un día Cristo volverá

Representative Text

1 Un día Cristo volverá;
es la promesa del Señor;
Tal como fue así vendrá,
y su pueblo ha de ver al Salvador.

Coro:
Muy pronto, sí, Jesús vendrá,
y alegre le verá su pueblo.
¡Velad! ¡Orad! el Rey vendrá,
los suyos arrebatará.

2 Los mensajeros del Señor
anuncian que Jesús vendrá;
Señales hay alrededor;
él vendrá y a los suyos llevará. [Coro]

3 En busca de su grey vendrá,
con toda gloria y honor;
Su Iglesia esperando está,
y aclamará con gozo a su Señor. [Coro]

4 ¡Oh bienvenido, Rey Jesús!
tus hijos te esperan ya:
Muy pronto han de ver la luz
y gozar de tu presencia siempre allá. [Coro]
