They are Coming
Author: Lizzie Edwards Hymnal: On Joyful Wing #12 (1886) Hymnal Title: On Joyful Wing First Line: See the faithful now returning Refrain First Line: They are coming, they are coming Lyrics: 1 See the faithful now returning
From the battle and the strife,
They have held their post with valor,
And have reached the gate of life;
There amid the shout of angels,
While they enter one by one,
Robe and crown, and palm of triumph,
Tell of duties nobly done.
Refrain:
They are coming, they are coming
To the kingdom and the mansions of the blest;
They are coming, they are coming,
Hallelujah! they are coming home to rest.
2 See the reapers in the distance
From the summer harvest plain,
To the feet of their Redeemer
Bearing sheaves of golden grain;
And amid the joyful welcome,
With the ransomed host they sing,
Hallelujah! hallelujah!
Till the hallowed arches ring. [Refrain]
3 Then the grand old ship of Zion
Drops her anchor in the bay,
Where her thousands and her millions
She has carried many a day;
And the armies of the faithful,
And the reapers as they come,
To the mariners returning
Shout again the welcome home. [Refrain]
4 Oh, the meeting with the loved ones
That were parted many years!
Oh, the bright, celestial dawning
That shall never set in tears!
O, to join that countless number
In a land of fadeless flowers,
Who would mind the cares and heart-aches
In this fleeting world of ours? [Refrain] Tune Title: [See the faithful now returning]
