Lo the great God will come from high

Verse 1
Lo the great God will come from high,
And with him bring his own reward;
Jesus declares Jehovah nigh,
The sovereign God, th’ Almighty Lord!
Lo, from above I quickly come,
And bring my own reward with me,
And seal the universal doom,
Which stands to all eternity.

Verse 2
True witness of thy swift return,
Thy faithful record we receive,
And long on angels’ wings upborn
To meet, and see thy face, and live:
Come quickly, Lord, our hearts reply,
According to thy word descend
Jehovah glorious from the sky,
And bring the joy that ne’er shall end.
