The Saviour is Coming.

THE Saviour is coming, oh see the glad signs Fulfilling, which prophets have given; The sun has been darkened, the moon hid her light, The bright stars have fallen from heaven.
The lightnings have long been harnessed for use, Nahum's chariots now may be seen, As in the broadways they jostle and rage, With torches that glisten and gleam.
The last days of peril even now have appeared; For many are boasters and proud; They are covetous, traitors, blasphemers and fierce, Loving pleasure far more than their God.
The nations are fast getting angry, and soon The very last sign will appear, Then lift up your heads ye sorrowing saints Your redemption is now drawing near.
The last warning message now sounds through the land, The sand in Time's dial runs low, These tokens encourage and gladden our hearts, And on, with rejoicing, we go, A few days of trial, a few days of care, A few more temptations to brave, And then with the angels in Heaven we'll dwell, Victorious o'er death and the grave.
