The Song Book of the Salvation Army ‎#852

852. When he cometh, when he cometh

1 When he cometh, when he cometh
To make up his jewels,
All his jewels, precious jewels,
His loved and his own;

Refrain:
Like the stars of the morning,
His bright crown adorning,
They shall shine in their beauty
Bright gems for his crown.

2 He will gather, he will gather
The gems for his Kingdom;
All the pure ones, all the bright ones,
His loved and his own.

3 Little children, little children
Who love their redeemer,
Are his jewels, precious jewels,
His loved and his own.
