Matthew 24:36

• [Mat 24:36] Happy Crowning Day, The

  There’s an hour which no man knoweth, Nor the angels round the throne, When the Lord shall come in glory from the sky; All the saints shall rise to meet Him, For He calleth for his own; They shall hear the trumpet sounding by and by. Refrain Are you ready? ready? Looking for the King? Ready, while you labor, watch and pray? Are you ready? ready? Looking for the King? Ready for the happy crowning day? What a blessèd transformation, In the twinkling of an eye, When the mortal shall immortal life put on! Those who love Him shall be like Him, When He cometh from on high, At the noontide, at the midnight, or at dawn. Refrain Though our sins have been as scarlet, Let us seek the streams that flow From the cross that rose on Calv’ry’s rugged height; He is able still to keep us, And present us white as snow, When He comes again, as clouds of dazzling light.

Matthew 28:1

• [Mat 28:1] Day Of God, Thou Blessèd Day

  Day of God, thou blessèd day, At thy dawn the grave gave way To the power of Him within, Who had, sinless, bled for sin. Thine the radiance to illume First, for man, the dismal tomb, When its bars their weakness owned, There revealing death dethroned. Then the Sun of righteousness Rose, a darkened world to bless, Bringing up from mortal night Immortality and light. Day of glory, day of power, Sacred be thine every hour: Emblem, earnest, of the rest That remaineth for the blest.
