1. When the Lord shall come in heavenly glory,
    With the angels shining forth as crystal fair,
    Will you meet Me at that hour,
    When the saints shine forth in power,
    At that festal gathering in the air?

             CHORUS

   We shall greet the Lord of glory,
   Oh! How rapturous will it be,
   When the shadows flee and dawn is breaking,
   Rise to hail eternity.

2. Hear the angels sound the trumpets sweetly,
    And the Heavens swell with music rich and rare,
    When the saints from every land,
    Meet with Christ a chosen band,
    In the morning of our joy up there.

3. Through the ages was the Father longing,
    When salvation’s work on earth be seen complete,
    Then to gather jewels fair,
    Sanctified of sin and care,
    How amazing there for saints to meet.

4. When the Lord shall come for the chosen virgin,
    In the twinkling of an eye be Bride adorned,
    There within the riven veil,
    Never more to err and fail,
    When our bodies be like His transformed.

5. Hark! The hallelujah shouts in glory,
    Hear all Heaven sing with joy on nuptial day,
    See how Jesus welcomes there,
    Loving Bride – His fellow-heir,
    These are they who chose the narrow way
