1. The morning breaks,’tis bright and clear,
    The shadows of the night are flying swift away;
    A stirring cry salutes the ear:
    Jesus is coming soon.

                    CHORUS

            The songs of jubilee,
            It sweeps o’er land and sea;
            With thousand voices strong
            The chorus speeds along-
            One word of hope and cheer:
            The kingdom now is near,
            Jesus is coming soon.

2. By form and creed are millions bound,
    But God hath sent the Word to loose the iron band-
    Deliv’rance dawns with this glad sound:
    Jesus is coming soon.

3. Salvation nears-the saints arise,
    And from the sleep of death the
    Slumb’ring nations wake;
    We too shall mount the starry skies,
    Jesus is coming soon.

4. Our glorious King is coming soon-
    It may be darkest night, it may be morn or noon;
    In glory then His saints will reign,
    Jesus is coming soon.
