The Seventh-Day Adventist Hymn and Tune Book ‎#882

882. The Lord is coming! seas, retire!

1 The Lord is coming! seas, retire!
Ye mountains, melt to liquid fire!
Ye oceans, cease to ebb and flow!
His stately steppings ye should know.

2 The Lord is coming! Who shall stand?
Who shall be found at his right hand?
He with the righteous garment on
Which Christ our glorious King hath won.

3 The Lord is coming! watch and pray!
So shalt thou hasten that glad day;
So shalt thou then escape the snare,
And Christ's eternal glory share.
