266: CHRIST the Lord will come again

266: CHRIST the Lord will come again

by Joseph Swain (1761-1796)

1 CHRIST the Lord will come again,
None shall wait for Him in vain;
We shall then His glory see,
His, who died to set us free.

2 Then, when the Redeemer's voice
Calls the sleeping saints to rise,
Rising millions shall proclaim
Blessings on the Saviour's name.

3 "This is our redeeming God",
Ransomed hosts will shout aloud:
Praise, eternal praise, be given
To the Lord of earth and heaven.
