1 O longing soul, be not dismayed,
Thou shalt see Jesus from on high;
E’en tho’ His coming be delayed,
He’s surely coming by and by.

Refrain:
We know He’s coming by and by;
We know He’s coming by and by;
In the clouds of His love,
He is coming from above,
We know He’s coming by and by.

2 The cloud that hides the Savior’s face,
And wraps the earth in darkest night,
Shall roll away, and in its place
Shall dawn a glorious morning light. [Refrain]

3 He’ll bring our loved ones back when He
Shall in His glory come again;
We’ll be with them eternally,
And with our Savior too shall reign. [Refrain]

4 Then watch and wait till He shall come,
For our redemption then shall be;
Then He’ll receive us in that home,
That home that lasts eternally. [Refrain]
