Then shall the King say unto them on His right hand,
Matthew 25:34Come, ye blessed of My Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world.

The wonderful day
Of judgment is coming,
And we shall soon hear the call;
’Tis coming to you,
And ’tis coming to me,
That day is coming to all.
Refrain
O that wonderful, wonderful day,
It’s coming, coming soon;
O that wonderful, wonderful day,
It’s coming, coming soon;
It’s coming to you,
It’s coming to me,
That day is coming, yes,
Coming, coming to all.
Poor sinner, believe,
The judgment is coming,
O where will you stand that day?
The righteous will hear,
Come ye blessèd of Mine,
The lost be driven away.
Refrain
The dead in their graves
Will come forth to meet it,
All nations will hear the call
That speaks in loud tones
Time on earth is no more—
That day is coming to all.
Refrain
