Lyrics
Lo, He comes! With clouds descending,
Once for favoured sinners slain;
Thousand thousand saints attending
Swell the triumph of His train;
Hallelujah! (3x Helmsley)
Jesus comes, and comes to reign!
Every eye shall now behold Him
Robed in brightest majesty;
Those who set at naught and sold Him,
Pierced and nailed Him to the tree,
Deeply wailing, (3x Helmsley)
Shall the true Messiah see.
Lo, the tokens of His passion
Still His glorious body bears;
Cause of endless exultation
To His ransomed worshippers;
Hallelujah! (3x Helmsley)
Now the day of Christ appears.
Yea, Amen! Let all adore Thee,
High on Thine eternal throne;
Saviour, take the power and glory,
Share the kingdom with Thine own;
O come quickly! (3x Helmsley)
Hallelujah! Come Lord, come!
