GHS 174 : Jesus Is Coming Again Lyrics
GHS 174, “Jesus Is Coming Again,” is a second-coming hymn of pure, concentrated joy. Written by John W. Peterson, the hymn carries no qualification or uncertainty about the event itself; the only uncertainty is the timing. It may be morning, noon, or evening, it may be soon, but the thing itself is certain. Forest and flower, mountain and meadow, all of earth and heaven are pictured joining the announcement. Trials and troubles will be past, and the redeemed will stand before Him at last and cast their crowns at His feet in a day that will be wonderful beyond all description.
This hymn appears as number 174 in the Gospel Hymns and Songs (GHS) collection, used in Deeper Life Bible Church and related assemblies across West Africa, where the imminent return of Christ shapes the preaching, the priorities, and the daily life of the congregation.
Hymn Lyrics – GHS 174: Jesus Is Coming Again
- Marvelous message we bring, Glorious carol we sing, Wonderful word of the King: Jesus is coming again!
Coming again, coming again; May be morning, may be noon, May be evening and may be soon! Coming again, coming again; O what a wonderful day it will be! Jesus is coming again!
-
Forest and flower exclaim, Mountain and meadow the same, All earth and heaven proclaim: Jesus is coming again!
-
Standing before Him at last, Trial and trouble all past, Crowns at His feet we will cast: Jesus is coming again!
