Lift Up the Trumpet
 
1. Lift up the trumpet, and loud let it ring:
Jesus is coming again!
Cheer up, ye pilgrims, be joyful and sing:
Jesus is coming again!
Coming Comagain, ing again, coming again,
Jesus is coming again! 
 
2. Echo it, hilltops; proclaim it, ye plains:
Jesus is coming again!
Coming in glory, the Lamb that was slain;
Jesus is coming again! 
 
3. Heavings of earth, tell the vast, wond'ring throng:
Jesus is coming again!
Tempests and whirlwinds, the anthem prolong;
Jesus is coming again! 
 
4. Nations are angry by this we do know:
Jesus is coming again!
Knowledge increases; men run to and fro;
Jesus is coming again! 
 
5. Glorious angel is lighting the world:
Jesus is coming again!
God's sabbath rest is the banner unfurl'd;
Jesus is coming again!
