#31The Coming Events
Hymn Display
1
THE coming events of the kingdom of God,
Cast glory its shadows before;
And my being would leap from its prison'd abode,
And the King in his beauty adore.
2
He comes, and the Spirit that lingers below,
In the hearts of the chosen and tried,
Is quicken'd and tells, in its mystical flow,
The approach of the Bridegroom and Bride.
3
The love, and the joy, and the peace of the blest,
Like the day-star, arise in the soul,
And we taste the first fruits of the Eden of rest,
And we hasten to enter the goal.
4
All glory, all glory, to him that was slain,
Who hath wash'd and redeem'd us to God;
For he cometh with power in his kingdom to reign,
And the earth to his scepter is bow'd.
