That Glorious Day Is Coming
Create PowerPoint slides from this hymn →A classic Second Advent hymn describing the return of Christ in glory, the gathering of the saints, and the promise of an eternal day without sorrow. Its style and themes align closely with 19th-century Adventist hymnody.
Verse 1
That glorious day is coming,
The hour is hastening on;
Its radiant light is nearing,
Far brighter than the sun;
In yonder clouds of heaven,
The Savior will appear,
And gather all His chosen,
To meet Him in the air.
Verse 2
The saints, then all victorious
Will go to meet their Lord;
An earth both bright and glorious,
Will then be their reward;
And God Himself there reigning,
Will wipe all tears away;
Nor clouds nor night remaining,
But one eternal day.
Verse 3
O Christian, keep from sleeping,
And let your love abound;
Be watchful, prayerful, faithful,
The trumpet soon will sound!
O sinner, hear the warning!
To Jesus quickly!
Then you, in that blest morning,
May meet Him in the sky!
