Lo! He Comes With Clouds Descending – Canções de Natal – letras

Lo! He comes with clouds descending,Once for favored sinners slain;Thousand thousand saints attending,Swell the triumph of His train:Hallelujah! Hallelujah!God appears on earth to reign.Every eye shall now behold HimRobed in dreadful majesty;Those who set at naught and sold Him,Pierced and nailed Him to the tree,Deeply wailing, deeply wailing,Shall the true Messiah see.Every island, sea, and mountain,Heav’n and earth, shall flee away;All who hate Him must, confounded,Hear the trump proclaim the day:Come to judgment! Come to judgment!Come to judgment! Come away!Now redemption, long expected,See in solemn pomp appear;All His saints, by man rejected,Now shall meet Him in the air:Hallelujah! Hallelujah!See the day of God appear!Answer Thine own bride and Spirit,Hasten, Lord, the general doom!The new Heav’n and earth t’inherit,Take Thy pining exiles home:All creation, all creation,Travails! groans! and bids Thee come!The dear tokens of His passionStill His dazzling body bears;Cause of endless exultationTo His ransomed worshippers;With what rapture, with what raptureGaze we on those glorious scars!Yea, Amen! let all adore Thee,High on Thine eternal throne;Savior, take the power and glory,Claim the kingdom for Thine own;O come quickly! O come quickly!Everlasting God, come down!
