Watch, for the Savior Is Coming

Verse 1

Watch, for the Sav­ior is com­ing; Thus He has said be­fore: Soon we shall hear Him, not know­ing, Till He is at the door.

Chorus

Jesus comes. Lo! He comes, Oh, the aw­ful mo­ment! Oh, pre­pare, for He comes, Comes in fi­nal judg­ment.

Verse 2

Will you be rea­dy and wait­ing For the great trum­pet’s sound? When the lost world be will be shak­ing, Where will you then be found?

Verse 3

Coming in pow­er and great glo­ry, Gath’ring us home to dwell! Sinners are ban­ished in mi­se­ry, Down to a woe­ful hell.

Verse 4

Down to eter­nal de­struct­ion, Oh, what an aw­ful sight! Sent to your last des­ti­na­tion, Where it’s for­ev­er night.

Verse 5

Sinners, ob­ey and take warn­ing, Will you now make the choice? Happy you’ll be in that morn­ing, If you will hear His voice.

Verse 6

Up in the por­tals of glo­ry, Gathered around the throne, Singing sal­va­tion’s sweet sto­ry, Safe in our joy­ful home.
