Jesus is coming, coming soon,
In all his power and purity;
Bringing and end to death and gloom,
His kingdom, might and majesty.
Jesus is coming, coming soon,
All war and pain and poverty;
He’ll heal, enrich and bless this world,
He’ll reign through all eternity.
Jesus is coming, coming soon,
Coming to judge in faithfulness;
With eyes like fire and with his sword,
Clothed with his robes of righteousness.
Jesus is coming, coming soon,
Leading us on to victory;
He’ll rule the nations, overall,
O are you ready for that day?
Jesus is coming, coming soon,
Kings, captains, riders, warriors too;
All knees and tongues before him bow,
Come Jesus, come, all things subdue.
Jesus is coming, coming soon,
With a loud crash and mighty sound;
His faithful people good and true,
Shout hallelujah! Gather round.
(Tune: Rimington; Duke St; LM)
