Hymn 291 — Lo! He comes, from heav'n descending,
| 291 | C. WESLEY (1707-1788) Adapted | 8.7.8.7.4.7. |
| 1 |
Lo! He comes, from heav'n descending, Once for guilty sinners slain; Thousand thousand saints attending Swell the triumph of His train. Hallelujah! Jesus comes, and comes to reign. | |
| 2 |
See the Saviour, long expected, Now in solemn pomp appear! And His saints, by man rejected, In His heav'nly glory share. Hallelujah! See the Son of God appear! | |
| 3 |
Israel's race shall then behold Him, Full of grace and majesty; Though they set at nought and sold Him, Pierced and nailed Him to the tree, They in glory Shall their great Messiah see. | |
| 4 |
Lord, the bride is with the Spirit Calling on Thee now to come; All the glory to inherit And to sit upon Thy throne. All creation Travails, groans, till Thou shalt come. | |
| 5 |
Yea! Amen! let all adore Thee, Highest honour Thine in heav'n; Saviour, take the power and glory, All the nations God has giv'n. Come, Lord Jesus! Hallelujah! Come, Lord, come! | |
