Jesus Comes!

THEODOR HANSON
Lo, the morning bright is dawning, And the shadows pass away; All the signs are now fulfilled, And at hand is God's great day.
Waiting have the saints looked forward To the day of victory, When the sorrows and temptations Shall forever ended be.
O what joy when death and darkness And the cry of battle cease, And instead there comes the kingdom Of the glorious Prince of Peace!
Though the night was long and dreary, Lo, the sun is on the hill! Let us lift our heads, rejoicing, And await a moment still!
Jesus comes as he has promised, And our hope was not in vain. Jesus comes! O, are you ready When the Saviour comes again?
Jesus comes! Awake and hasten! Lo, the dayspring from on high! Jesus comes! Sing Hallelujah! Our redemption now is nigh.
