#726The Time Is Near

1
The time is near when Je-sus comes With ho-ly joy shall To gath-er home His peo-ple dear, To meet Him in the sky; When skies with gold-en glo-ry crowned, With burn-ing splen-dor shine.
2
The time is near when earth and sea Their long-kept se-crets tell, When moun-tains rend and na-tions flee, And sin-ners trem-ble well; When time it-self shall be no more, And days and years shall cease.
3
The time is near when those who sleep In Je-sus shall a-rise, A-wake to joy per-pet-u-al, And look with glad sur-prise; When Christ shall come with shout of joy, And saints with Him shall reign.
