One sweetly solemn thought
Author: Phoebe Cary Hymnal: The Seventh-Day Adventist Hymn and Tune Book #1335 (1886) Topics: Bible Songs Judgment and Second Advent Lyrics: 1 One sweetly solemn thought
Comes to me o'er and o'er;
I'm nearer home today, today,
Than e'er I've been before.
Chorus:
Nearer my home,
Nearer my home;
Nearer my home today, today,
Than e'er I've been before.
2 Nearer my Father's house,
Where many mansions be;
Nearer the throne where Jesus reigns,
Nearer the crystal sea. [Chorus]
3 Nearer my going home,
Laying my burdens down,
Leaving my cross of heavy grief,
Wearing my starry crown. [Chorus] Scripture: Hebrews 11:16 Tune Title: NEARER MY HOME

And the trumpet sound. [Chorus]

Down the flaming sky
The Judge will come, and will take his people
Where they will not die. [Chorus]

Will all meet that day;
The tears of those who are brokenhearted
Will be wiped away. [Chorus] Scripture: Matthew 24:30 Tune Title: GLEAMS OF THE GOLDEN MORNING

To the land of bliss above. [Chorus]

He is coming, coming, coming on the cloud
Author: William Brickey Hymnal: The Seventh-Day Adventist Hymn and Tune Book #1342 (1886) Topics: Bible Songs Judgment and Second Advent First Line: He is coming, yes, he's coming, with the holy angel band Lyrics: 1 He is coming, yes, he's coming, with the holy angel band,
We rejoice to hear the message as it speeds by sea and land,
When the gospel of the kingdom shall in all the world be preached
For a witness to all nations, and its final triumph reached.
Chorus:
He is coming, coming, coming on the cloud,
With a shout of triumph, and with trumpet loud;
All the dead shall hear his voice, all the righteous shall rejoice;
For he's coming in glory soon to reign.
2 He is coming, yes, he's coming with great majesty and power,
While before and round about him fire and tempest shall devour:
Yes, with more than pageant splendor as he rides upon the cloud,
While the saints and holy angels shout with hallelujahs loud. [Chorus]
3 He is coming, not in secret, but like lightning in the sky,
With the voice of the Archangel and the trump of God most high.
Then the dead in Christ will hear his voice and from their graves arise,
And with all the living righteous they shall meet him in the skies. [Chorus]
4 He is coming, yes, he's coming; heav'n and earth before him flee,
But in all the new creation naught but righteousness shall be;
Then the moon shall be confounded, and the sun ashamed to shine,
When the Lord in dazzling glory reigns in righteousness divine. [Chorus]
5 He is coming! O what rapture! O what music to the ear!
We anticipate his glory, and believe his kingdom near;
We have waited for him patiently, and still our faith is strong,
And we almost hear the angels shout "hosannas," loud and long. [Chorus] Scripture: Acts 1:9 Tune Title: COMING ON THE CLOUD
He is coming, coming, coming on the cloud
Shall we stand at His coming, His glorious coming
Author: F. E. Belden Hymnal: The Seventh-Day Adventist Hymn and Tune Book #1343 (1886) Topics: Bible Songs Judgment and Second Advent Lyrics: 1 Shall we stand at His coming, His glorious coming,
When the summer is over, and harvest is past!
When the sheaves of his choosing he takes for his using,
To the glorious kingdom forever to last?
Chorus:
Shall we stand at His coming, His glorious coming,
When he gathers the wheat to his garner above?
When in glory descending, with the angels attending,
He returns for his jewels, the price of his love?
2 When the Archangel's trumpet shall rend the broad heavens,
And the millions who slumber immortal arise,
Shall we stand with the holy, the meek and the lowly,
Who in glory triumphant mount up to the skies? [Chorus]
3 When the loud lamentation breaks forth from creation,
That the day of God's wrath and his fury has come,
Shall we join that sad chorus while death hovers o'er us?
Or in terror unbounded stand trembling and dumb? [Chorus]
4 Then the hope of possession will not be profession,
For the lover of self will his motives behold;
Only they who, obeying, have toiled, striving, praying,
Shall ascend with the saints to the city of gold. [Chorus] Scripture: Matthew 7:21 Tune Title: SHALL WE STAND AT HIS COMING?
Shall we stand at His coming, His glorious coming

Look for the way-marks, passing one by one;
Down through the ages, past the kingdoms four,
Where are we standing?
Look the way-marks o'er.
Chorus:
Look for the way-marks, the great prophetic way-marks,
Down through the ages, past the kingdoms four.
Look for the way-marks, the great prophetic way-marks;
The journey's almost o'er.
2 First, the Assyrian kingdom ruled the world,
Then Medo-Persia's banners were unfurled;
And after Greece held universal sway,
Rome seized the scepter,
Where are we today? [Chorus]
3 Down in the feet of iron and of clay,
Weak and divided, soon to pass away;
What will the next great, glorious drama be?
Christ and his coming,
And eternity. [Chorus] Scripture: Deuteronomy 29:29 Tune Title: LOOK FOR THE WAY-MARKS
Look for the way-marks, the great prophetic way-marks
Weighed in the balance of the Lord

For eternal gain or loss,
Shall we stand as gold before him,
Or as vile and worthless dross?
Refrain:
Weighed in the balance of the Lord,
Weighed, weighed, and wanting;
Weighed by the standard of his word,
Weighed, weighed, and wanting.
2 Shall we hear the glad words spoken:
"Faithful servant," and "well done,"
Or the dread and awful sentence,
"Thou art wanting," sinful one? [Refrain]
3 Shall we heed the Spirit's pleading,
While for mercy we may call,
Or delay till God's handwriting
Seals the final doom of all? [Refrain] Scripture: Daniel 5:27 Tune Title: WEIGHED AND WANTING
Weighed in the balance of the Lord
