��CiTARi.KS WERLm- (1707-17SS) and John Cennick (ITIS-ITW).
10 ! he comes with clouds descending, ■^Once for favoured sinners slain ; Thousand thousand saints attending Swell the triumph of his train :
Alleluia ! God appears, on earth to reign.
��Every eye shall now behold him Robed in dreadful majesty ;
Those who set at nought and sold him, Pierced and nailed him to the tree,
Deeply wailing Shall the true Messiah see.
��Those dear tokens of his passion Still his dazzling body bears,
Cause of endless exultation To his ransomed worshippers :
With what rapture Gaze we on those glorious scars !
��Yea, amen ! let all adore thee, High on thine eternal throne ;
Saviour, take the power and glory ; Claim the kingdom for thine own
Come, Jehovah ! Everlasting God, come down.
