Soon will the heavenly Bridegroom come

Author: J. Walther Hymnal: The Lutheran Hymnary #511 (1913) Topics: Second Coming of Christ Lyrics: 1 Soon will the heavenly Bridegroom come; Ye wedding-guests, draw near,And slumber not in sin when He, The Son of God, is here. With lamps alight and oil in store, let every guest advance, Nor shrink ashamed in trembling awe From His bright countenance. 2 Come, let us haste to meet our Lord, And hail Him with delight, Who saved us by His precious blood And sorrows infinite: Beside Him all the patriarchs old And holy prophets stand, The glorious apostolic choir, The noble martyr-band. 3 As brethren dear they welcome us, And lead us to the throne, Where angels bow their veiléd heads Before the Three in One, Where we, with all the saints of Christ, A white-robed multitude, Shall praise the ascended Lord, who deigns To wear our flesh and blood. 4 His gracious hand will ope for us The gates of paradise, And spread the glories of His heaven Before our dazzled eyes: Our lot will be for aye to share His reign of peace above, And drink with unexhausted joy The river of His love. Tune Title: [Soon will the heavenly Bridegroom come]

Give the knowledge of salvation, Give the pardon of our sins: By Thy all-restoring merit Every burdened soul release; Every weary, wandering spirit Guide into Thy perfect peace.

From the cross, from the cross, The light of glory streams. 3 Oh, joy! oh, rapture! thro’ the cross, Death’s portal fallen lies; And, lo, my coming Lord appears, To bear me to the skies. Thro’ the cross, thro’ the cross, Death’s portal fallen lies. 4 O sinner, standing at the cross, He bids you look and live; Yield up your heart with all its dross, That He may pardon give. At the cross, at the cross, He bids you look and live. Scripture: Colossians 2:14 Languages: English Tune Title: [I walk rejoicing from the cross]
