Hymn #215

The King Shall Come

Lyrics

Verse 1

The King shall come when morning dawns
And light triumphant breaks,
When beauty gilds the eastern hills
And life to joy awakes.

Verse 2

Not as of old a little child,
To bear and fight and die,
But crowned with glory like the sun
That lights the morning sky.

Verse 3

O, brighter than that rising morn
When Christ, victorious, rose
And left the lonesome place death,
Despite the rage of foes.

Verse 4

O, brighter than that glorious morn
Shall dawn upon our race
They day when Christ in splendor comes,
And we shall see His face.

Verse 5

The King shall come when morning dawns
And light and beauty brings.
Hail, Christ the Lord! Your people pray:
Come quickly, King of kings.
