Author: William Brickey Hymnal: The Seventh-Day Adventist Hymn and Tune Book #1342 (1886) Scripture: Revelation 1:7 First Line: He is coming, yes, he's coming, with the holy angel band Lyrics: 1 He is coming, yes, he's coming, with the holy angel band,
We rejoice to hear the message as it speeds by sea and land,
When the gospel of the kingdom shall in all the world be preached
For a witness to all nations, and its final triumph reached.
Chorus:
He is coming, coming, coming on the cloud,
With a shout of triumph, and with trumpet loud;
All the dead shall hear his voice, all the righteous shall rejoice;
For he's coming in glory soon to reign.
2 He is coming, yes, he's coming with great majesty and power,
While before and round about him fire and tempest shall devour:
Yes, with more than pageant splendor as he rides upon the cloud,
While the saints and holy angels shout with hallelujahs loud. [Chorus]
3 He is coming, not in secret, but like lightning in the sky,
With the voice of the Archangel and the trump of God most high.
Then the dead in Christ will hear his voice and from their graves arise,
And with all the living righteous they shall meet him in the skies. [Chorus]
4 He is coming, yes, he's coming; heav'n and earth before him flee,
But in all the new creation naught but righteousness shall be;
Then the moon shall be confounded, and the sun ashamed to shine,
When the Lord in dazzling glory reigns in righteousness divine. [Chorus]
5 He is coming! O what rapture! O what music to the ear!
We anticipate his glory, and believe his kingdom near;
We have waited for him patiently, and still our faith is strong,
And we almost hear the angels shout "hosannas," loud and long. [Chorus] Topics: Bible Songs Judgment and Second Advent Tune Title: COMING ON THE CLOUD
