His Glorious Appearing

By Mary Valliant Nowlin

MARY VALLIANT NOWLIN
He is coming, my Saviour, Redeemer; He is coming, my Master and King, And all I have hoped for and longed for His glorious appearing will bring. He is coming, the Conq'ror of conq'rors; He is coming forever to reign, To bring in eternal salvation Over all of his righteous domain.
He is coming, my soul, to thy longing; He is coming, my heart, to thy beat; And ever my spirit is yearning For that moment of moments most sweet, When my eyes shall look up, and behold him In the day of eternal release, The day of his glory immortal, When the earth shall be filled with his peace.
He is coming — the King of all kingdoms, The Lord of all lords — in his power. The earth is now groaning in travail, For deliverance waiting that hour. Then, then shall the desert place blossom, And its flowers will have never a thorn; The rose and the myrtle shall flourish, And the earth will break forth into song.
He is coming — the King in his beauty — His majesty all shall behold — Soon coming, whose glorious appearing All seers and prophets have told. And my soul like the hart is now panting As he thirsts for the waters at noon — But O, my Beloved is coming, And I shall be satisfied soon!
