The Bridegroom comes
“Behold, the bridegroom cometh”. Matt. 25:6
1.
The Bridegroom comes
O Bride of the Lamb awake
The midnight cry is heard
Thy sleep forsake
Refrain
Behold the Bridegroom cometh
Behold the Bridegroom cometh
Behold the Bridegroom cometh
Go ye out to meet Him
2.
The marriage day
Has come lift up thy head
Prepare to enter in
The feast is spread
3.
Shake off earth’s dust
And wash thy weary feet
Arise, make haste, go forth
The Bridegroom greet
4.
The new song sing
The triumph has begun
Thy tears are wiped away
Thy night is done
Amen
