M. J. Camp (264/413) -- Hymns and Spiritual Songs

M. J. Camp LIFT up your heads, pilgrims aweary, See day’s approach now crimson the sky; Night shadows flee, and your Beloved, Awaited with longing, at last draweth nigh. He is coming again, He is coming again, The very same Jesus, rejected of men; He is coming again, He is coming again, With power and great glory, He is coming again. 2 Dark was the night, sin warred against us; Heavy the load of sorrow we bore; But now we see signs of His coming; Our hearts glow within us, joy’s cup runneth o’er! 3 O blessed hope! O blissful promise! Filling our hearts with rapture divine; O day of days! hail Thy appearing! Thy transcendent glory forever shall shine! 4 Even so come, precious Lord Jesus; Creation waits redemption to see; Caught up in clouds, soon we shall meet Thee; O blessed assurance, forever with Thee!
