Lyrics

He is com­ing again with great glo­ry and pow­er,
To reign on this earth as the King ov­er all;
And the na­tions shall bend
’Neath the sway of His rod,
And the de­sert re­joice at the pre­sence of God.

Refrain

And the pow­ers of dark­ness shall crum­ble and fall;
In the glo­ri­ous light of the ALL-IN-ALL;
In the glo­ri­ous light, in the glo­ri­ous light,
In the glo­ri­ous light of the ALL-IN-ALL.

When His right­eous­ness cov­ers this earth as a sea,
No sor­row or care then shall bur­den the soul;
At His pre­sence the hills shall re­joice and be glad,
And not one in the bounds of His realm shall be sad.

Refrain

All of sin and of sick­ness shall van­ish away,
The heav’ns shall be seen com­ing down as the dew,
At the pre­sence of Him, the Al­migh­ty and King,
All the co­horts of earth shall break forth and shall sing.

Refrain

Neither weep­ing nor death
Then will mar the fair scene;
No more shall the ter­rors of Sa­tan ap­pall;
Our re­joic­ing in Je­sus will then be com­plete,
For His en­emies all shall be un­der His feet.

Refrain

Then fare­well to all sin let us joy­ful­ly say,
Farewell to its plea­sures, fare­well to its mirth;
All its fol­lies and joys then as no­thing shall be,
When the Lord in His glo­ry and beau­ty we see.

Refrain
