 "He will come," is the shout of voices,
 * Which have sung in a thousand ways;

For the heart of the saint rejoices,
 * At the thought of the coming days.

When the war of creeds will be over,
 * And our King descends from above,

Only they shall witness His crowning,
 * Who have lived in the light of love.

Then the Christ shall reign in his glory
 * On the throne of his sovereign might:

And the theme of Redemption's story
 * Will be sung with perfect delight.

And our minds will dazzle with brightness,
 * As our thoughts forever aspire,

For a mantle of perfect whiteness,
 * Shall cover the youth and the sire;

Then we know that none will be jealous,
 * And no one will envy our lot.

For against the one who is zealous,
 * Not a soul will contrive or plot.

And our actions will chime in pleasure,
 * All refined from malice and sting.

We shall all reach the perfect measure,
 * In the reign of this conquering King.

We will have everything we can use,
 * In those beautiful realms of light;

There the people will do as they choose,
 * For each one will choose to do right.
