Text Based On 1 John Chapter 3 (KJV)
Beloved, now are we the sons of God, and it doth not yet appear what we shall be:
but we know that, when he shall appear, we shall be like him;
for we shall see him as he is.

The Day Is Fast Approaching
1.
The day is fast approaching-
when the Saviour shall appear,
and every eye His glory shall behold;
The tokens of His coming fill-
the loyal heart with cheer-
though strife abounds and love is waxing cold.
Refrain
We’ll see Him as He is,
and the brightness of His glory we shall share;
We’ll see Him as He is,
and the likeness of His image we shall bear.
2.
In all His Father’s glory,
clothed in majesty unveiled,
with myriads of the shining angel band,
The King descends triumphant-
in whose might we have prevailed,
and all the ransomed rise at His command.
Refrain
3.
Oh, may we all as sons of light-
be watching unto prayer,
for surely our redemption draweth nigh;
With holy zeal and patient faith,
let every soul prepare-
to join the advent chorus in the sky.
Refrain
A blessèd Seventh Day (Saturday) Sabbath, to all true believers.
In the Son’s Name - For the Father’s glory.
