Lo, He Comes With Clouds Descending
Words: by Charles Wesley, 1758
Tune: HELMSLEY by Th. Olivers, 1763; harmony by R. Vaughn Williams, 1906

1. Lo, he comes with clouds descending,
   once for our salvation slain;
   thousand, thousand saints attending
   join to sing the glad refrain:
   Alleluia,
   alleluia,
   alleluia!
   Christ the Lord returns to reign.
    
2. Now redemption, long expected,
   comes in solemn splendor near;
   all the saints this world rejected
   thrill the trumpet sound to hear:
   Alleluia,
   alleluia,
   alleluia!
   See the day of God appear!
    
3. Yea, amen, let all adore thee,
   high on thine eternal throne;
   Savior, take the power and glory;
   claim the kingdom as thine own.
   Come, Lord Jesus;
   come, Lord Jesus;
   come, Lord Jesus.
   Thou shalt reign, and thou alone!
