HE'S COMING SOON
In these, the closing days of time,
What joy the glorious hope affords,
That soon oh, wondrous truth sublime!
He shall reign, King of kings and Lord of lords.
Refrain
He's coming soon, he's coming soon;
With joy we welcome His returning;
It may be morn, it may be night or noon,
We know He's coming soon
The signs around in earth and air,
Or painted on the starlit sky,
God's faithful witnesses declare,
That the coming of the Saviour draweth nigh.
Refrain
The dead in Christ who neath us lie,
In countless numbers, all shall rise
When through the portals of the sky
He shall come to prepare our paradise.
Refrain
And we who, living, yet remain,
Caught up, shall meet our faithful Lord;
This hope we cherish not in vain,
But we comfort one another by this word.
Refrain

Good to see someone has posted the words of Thoro Harris's gospel song, "He's Coming Soon." It's the only hymn I know of whose tune was written by a queen! To see the story, check out my daily blog Wordwise Hymns this morning.
