All our trials will be over when our Lord shall come; He is coming by and by; All our pilgrimage will cease when we arrive at home, He is coming by and by.

He may come at the midnight or the morning, He may come at the brightness of the noon; We will watch, we will pray, We will labor every day, For we know He is coming very soon.

How our hearts will be made happy when we see His face; He is coming by and by; And the theme of all our praise will be redeeming grace, He is coming by and by.

He may come at the midnight or the morning, He may come at the brightness of the noon; We will watch, we will pray, We will labor every day, For we know He is coming very soon.

Not as sacrifice for sinners will He come again; He is coming by and by; But as King of kings and Lord of lords He comes to reign, He is coming by and by.

He may come at the midnight or the morning, He may come at the brightness of the noon; We will watch, we will pray, We will labor every day, For we know He is coming very soon.
