Jesus Returneth

 

                                                Jesus Returneth

“But of that day and hour knows no man, no, not the angels of heaven, but my Father only.” Matthew 24:36. No one knows when Jesus will appear. Many prophesy that they know but the Bible clearly states that no one knows, not even the angels. It could be when you’re sleeping, it could be in the middle of the day, it could be when and where you least expect it. So be ready because Christ will return soon.

Lyrics by H. L. Turner, arranged by James McGranahan

“It may be at morn, when the day is awaking, when sunlight through darkness and shadow is breaking, that Jesus will come in the fullness of glory, to receive from the world “His own”.

It may be at midday, it may be at twilight, it may be perchance, that the blackness of midnight will burst into light in the blaze of His glory, when Jesus receives “His own.”

While its hosts cry Hosanna, from heaven descending, with glorified saints and the angels attending, with grace on His brow, like a halo of glory, will Jesus receive “His own.”

Oh, joy! Oh, delight! Should we go without dying, no sickness, no sadness, no dread and no crying, caught up through the clouds with our Lord into glory, when Jesus receives “His own.”

O Lord Jesus, how long, how long ere we shout the glad song, Christ returneth! Hallelujah! Hallelujah! Amen. Hallelujah! Amen.”
