Lo! He Comes with Clouds Descending

Congregational singing
Capitol Hill Baptist Church - Washington, D.C.
Text: John Cennick | Tune: HELMSLEY

Lo! He comes with clouds descending,
Once for favoured sinners slain:
Thousand thousand saints attending
Swell the triumph of His train:
Hallelujah!
Jesus now shall ever reign.

Every eye shall now behold Him
Robed in dreadful majesty;
Those who set at nought and sold Him,
Pierced, and nailed Him to the tree,
Deeply wailing,
Shall the great Messiah see.

Now redemption, long expected,
See in solemn pomp appear:
All His saints, by man rejected,
Now shall meet Him in the air:
Hallelujah!
See the Day of God appear!

Yea, Amen! let all adore Thee,
High on Thine eternal throne:
Savior, take the power and glory,
Claim the kingdom for Thine own:
O, come quickly,
Hallelujah, come Lord, come!
