Matthew 24:3

• [Mat 24:3] Jesus, Thy Church With Longing Eyes

  Jesus, Thy church with longing eyes For Thine expected coming waits: When will the promised Light arise, And glory beam from Zion’s gates? E’en now, when tempests round us fall, And wintry clouds o’ercast the sky, Thy words with pleasure we recall, And deem that our redemption’s nigh. Come, gracious Lord, our hearts renew, Our foes repel, our wrongs redress, Man’s rooted enmity subdue, And crown Thy Gospel with success. O come, and reign o’er every land; Let Satan from his throne be hurled; Let nations bow to Thy command, And grace revive a dying world. Teach us in watchfulness and prayer To wait for the appointed hour; And fit us for Thy grace to share The triumph of Thy conquering power.

• [Mat 24:3] There Is A Mighty Question

  There is a mighty question we ask when nations rage: Just when will be Christ’s coming, the ending of the age? Take care, said Jesus clearly, for many will appear; They’ll claim to be Messiah, yet people should not fear. For in the days of Noah, the people went along In eating and in drinking, in merriment and song— Then suddenly the world changed with great, surprising power; So too will be Christ’s coming, and no one knows the hour. So keep awake and watchful; salvation is at hand! Our hope is in Christ Jesus, and by God’s grace we stand. The night is almost over, we wait for God’s new day, And through the Holy Spirit, we follow Jesus’ way. Be ready in your living, for when you feed the poor, Or give to thirsty children the water they long for, And when you welcome strangers and help the ones in need, Christ says: “Receive my kingdom, for you are serving me.”

• [Mat 24:3] ’tis Almost Time For The Lord To Come

  ’Tis almost time for the Lord to come, I hear the people say; The stars of heaven are growing dim, It must be the breaking of the day. Refrain O it must be the breaking of the day! O it must be the breaking of the day! The night is almost gone, The day is coming on; O it must be the breaking of the day! The signs foretold in the sun and moon, In earth and sea and sky, Aloud proclaim to all mankind, The coming of the Master draweth nigh. Refrain It must be time for the waiting church To cast her pride away, With girded loins and burning lamps, To look for the breaking of the day. Refrain Go quickly out in the streets and lanes And in the broad highway, And call the maimed, the halt, and blind, To be ready for the breaking of the day. Refrain

Matthew 24:27-31

• [Mat 24:27] Light In The Eastern Sky

  Light in the eastern sky, Jesus returning! Light in the western sky, Jesus is near! Soon shall the nations, His advent discerning, Hail Him with gladness, or see Him with fear. Refrain Lord, by Thy hands that were nail pierced and torn: Lord by the crown that they wove of the thorns: Lord, by Thy passion in Gethsemane: Christ of all tenderness, plead Thou for me! Bright be our lamps as we watch for the dawning, Girded our loins, that our strength may not fail; So as He shines through the mists of the morning, We may be ready to cry Him, “All hail!” Refrain Not as at Nazareth—lowly they found Him; He as the Judge cometh back from the sky; Borne on the whirlwind, with angels around Him, Veiling their face from His glory so nigh. Refrain Judge of the earth, who in mercy unfailing Offered Thyself as atonement for sin, In that great day, by Thy love all prevailing, Grant us the rest of Thy heaven to win! Refrain

• [Mat 24:30] Once More, O Lord, Thy Sign

  Once more, O Lord, Thy sign shall be Upon the heav’ns displayed, And earth and its inhabitants Be terribly afraid: For not, in weakness clad, Thou com’st, Our woes, our sins to bear, But girt with all Thy Father’s might, His judgment to declare. The terrors of that awful day O who can understand? Or who abide, when Thou in wrath Shall lift Thy holy hand? The earth shall quake, the sea shall roar, The sun in heav’n grow pale; But Thou hast sworn, and wilt not change, Thy faithful shall not fail. Then grant us, Savior, so to pass Our time in trembling here, That when upon the clouds of Heav’n Thy glory shall appear, Uplifting high our joyful heads, In triumph we may rise, And enter, with Thine angel train, Thy palace in the skies.
