He comes now, see Him resplendent,
              On the clouds, impressive, gorgeous!
                 Look upon Him, see the Lord,
                  See Him, He's clad in glory;
               See the conqu'ring victor crowned,
                He will come! Yes, He will come!
                           3
                 All the thorns of his rejection,
               Have become red rays around Him;
               And the staff they made Him carry,
                 Royal scepter of His kingdom;
                 Look upon Him, see the Lord,
               All the Saints brightly behind him;
                  Alongside majestic angels,
                He will come! Yes, He will come!
                           4
                 Pity those who never followed,
               And did not receive our Lord Jesus,
                Sacred vestments, freely given,
                To come to the festive weddings;
                 Look upon Him, see the Lord,
              Bride of Jesus, meet your Bridegroom;
               Your great moment is not at hand,
                He will come! Yes, He will come.

             There's a royal banner given for display,
                  To the soldiers of the King;
                As a fair ensign we lift it up today,
                While as ransomed ones we sing.
                        CHORUS
                    //Marching onward//
               For Christ count everything but loss!
              To crown Him King we'll toil and sing,
                'Neath the banner of the cross.
