207- It May Be at Morn

Jesus Christ: Second Advent

1

  • 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.

Refrain

  • O Lord Jesus, how long, how long
  • Ere we shout the glad song?
  • Christ returneth,
  • Hallelujah! hallelujah! Amen,
  • Hallelujah! Amen.

2

  • 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.

3

  • O joy! O 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.
