Lo, He comes, from heaven descending- (384)

Lo, He comes, from heaven descending-
Once for favored sinners slain!
Thousand thousand saints attending,
Swell the triumph of His train!
Hallelujah! hallelujah!
Jesus comes, and comes to reign!

See the Saviour, long expected,
Crowned with glory, now appear,
While His saints, by man rejected,
All His heavenly glory share!
Hallelujah! hallelujah!
See the Son of God appear!

Israel’s race shall now behold Him,
Full of grace and majesty!
They who set at naught and sold Him,
Pierced Him, nailed Him to the tree,
Now in glory-now in glory,
Shall their great Messiah see!
‘Tis Thy heavenly bride and Spirit,
Jesus, Lord, that bid Thee come,
All Thy glory to inherit,
And to take Thy people home!
All creation-all creation
Travails, groans, till Thou shalt come!

Yea, Amen! let all adore Thee,
High on Thine exalted throne!
Saviour, take Thy power and glory-
Claim the kingdoms for Thine own!
Come, Lord Jesus! come, Lord Jesus!
Hallelujah! come, Lord, come!
