Welcome, Blessed Jesus
Author: Lizzie DeArmond Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.7 D Appears in 2 hymnals First Line: Sing again the blessed story Refrain First Line: Welcome, welcome, blessed Jesux Lyrics: 1 Sing again the blessèd story,
Till with joy each heart shall glow,
Angels bright, from realms of glory,
Told to sinful man below;
While the world is quiet sleeping,
While the stars their light unfold,
Let us hear the joyful anthem
Angels sang to harps of gold.
Refrain:
Welcome, welcome, blessèd Jesus,
Give Thy peace to us today;
Glory, in the highest glory,
Be unto Thy name alway!
2 Glory, in the highest glory!
We would know the tidings sweet,
Hasten onward, gladly onward,
Like the shepherds Christ to greet;
He has come, the blessèd Jesus,
Born to us this happy day,
In our hearts, most holy Stranger,
We will welcome Thee alway. [Refrain] Used With Tune: ALDERSHOT Text Sources: World-Wide Hosannas by Adam Geibel and R. Frank Lehman (Philadelphia: Adam Geibel Music, 1904)

I Am Coming Back
Author: J. Wakefield MacGill, 1829-1902 Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.7 D Appears in 2 hymnals First Line: There is something strangely tender Refrain First Line: "Ah," He whispered, when He left them Lyrics: 1 There is something strangely tender
In His parting words so sweet,
"Do not let your heart be troubled,
For we by and by shall meet
In the home of many mansions,
Which I go now to prepare.
And when I am ready, dear ones,
I will come and take you there."
Refrain:
"Ah," He whispered, when He left them,
"I am coming back again,"
And will take you to your new home,
Ever near Me to remain.
2 Ah, those words, so strangely tender,
Still keep echoing all round,
And tho’ they have gone to glory,
And have reached the hallowed ground,
The sweet promise has not failed them,
They are with their Lord tonight.
We shall find them ready, waiting,
Just within the gates of light. [Refrain]
3 Don’t you hear the words so tender?
Don’t they echo in your heart?
Don’t they woo you from this poor life,
That with which you soon must part?
Those who wait His coming glorious
Then will form His royal train;
Oh, the rapturous hour of meeting
When the Lord comes back to reign. [Refrain] Used With Tune: ALDERSHOT
