That Glorious Day Is Coming

Anonymous • English

Primary Scripture: 1 Thessalonians 4:13-18

Verse 1

That glorious day is coming, The hour is hast'ning on; Its radiant light is nearing, Far brighter than the sun; In yonder clouds of heaven, The Savior will appear, And gather all His chosen, To meet Him in the air.

Verse 2

The saints, then all victorious Will go to meet their Lord; An earth both bright and glorious, Will then be their reward; And God Himself there reigning, Will wipe all tears away; Nor clouds nor night remaining, But one eternal day.

Verse 3

O Christian, keep from sleeping, And let your love abound; Be watchful, prayerful, faithful, The trumpet soon will sound! O sinner, hear the warning! To Jesus quickly fly! Then you, in that blest morning, May meet Him in the sky!
