Lo! He Comes With Clouds Descending.

Thomas Olivers begins one of his hymns with this line. The hymn is a Judgment-day lyric of rude strength and once in current use, but now rarely printed. The "Lo He Comes," here specially noted, is the production of John Cennick, the Moravian.

Lo! He comes with clouds descending Once for favored sinners slain, Thousand thousand saints attending Swell the triumph of His train. Hallelujah! God appears on earth to reign.

Yea, amen; let all adore Thee High on Thy eternal throne. Saviour, take the power and glory, Claim the kingdom for thine own; O come quickly; Hallelujah! Come, Lord, come.
