1. We long to see the time foretold
Our Lord's returning we shall behold
In God we're trusting, undismayed
He'll fulfill every promise He has made
The time is near! The time is near!
The King of glory shall appear
The saints of God, await the Lord's return
For their Redeemer they yearn
2. All those who serve our Lord of love
Will reign one day with Him above
Resplendent as the sun they'll be
Hymns of glory they'll sing eternally
3. All those who hearken to God's voice
One day in heaven will rejoice
The Saviour in the Word declared
That a kingdom of life will be prepared
