(\'Lo, He comes with clouds descending\')
Revelation 1 v.5-8
*********
Jesus Christ, the faithful witness
Ever be and ever is
He first-begotten of the dead
Now lives e\'er, our living Head
Ruler over al things
Ruler over all things
Ruler over all things
His eternal peace He brings
Unto Him that loved us and us saved
He the way to God has paved
And has washed us from our sins in
His own blood, cleansed us within
To Him be the glory
To Him be the glory
To Him be the glory
And dominion lastingly
Behold, he comes with the clouds, then
Every eye shall see Him when
He returns to the earth again
To gather out of all men (mankind)
All who Him as Saviour
All whom Him as Saviour
All whom Him as Saviour
Accept, and death be no more
Then shall they who pierced Him wonder
Kindreds shall mourn, and shall stir
For He seen of all now, it be
According to His plans, see
Christ as Lord here reigning
Christ as Lord here reigning
Christ as Lord here reigning
We Him humble tributes bring
He is Alpha and Omega
Beginning and ending sure
The Lord, He who is, and who was
And is to come, lives He does
The Lord God Almighty
The Lord God Almighty
The Lord God Almighty
Endless glory to Him be
