Added by crosby3145, 25 Jul 2017 The next time you meet someone that thinks they know when Christ is coming back, calmly remind them that “…of that day and hour no one knows, not even the angels of Heaven, but my Father only.” (Matthew 24:31). We don’t know when Christ is coming back, but we do know one thing—it’ll be glorious for us Christians! I could elaborate, but why bother, when we’ve got this excellent hymn by H. L. Turner: 1. It may be at morn, when the day is awaking, When sunlight thru darkness and shadow is breaking, That Jesus will come in the fullness of glory To receive from the world His own. 2. It may be at midday, it may be at twilight, It may be, perchance, that the blackness of midnight Will burst into light in the blaze of His glory, When Jesus receives His own. 3. While hosts cry Hosanna, from Heaven descending, With glorified saints and the angels attending, With grace on His brow, like a halo of glory, Will Jesus receive His own. 4. O joy! O delight! should we go without dying, No sickness, no sadness, no dread and no crying, Caught up thru the clouds with our Lord into glory, When Jesus receives His own. Chorus: O Lord Jesus, how long, how long Ere we shout the glad song— Christ returneth! Hallelujah! Hallelujah! Amen, Hallelujah! Amen! |
