Sweet promise is given to all who believe-- Behold I come quickly, Mine own to receive; Hold fast till I come; the danger is great; Sleep not as do others; be watchful, and wait.
REFRAIN
Hold fast till I come, sweet promise of heaven-- The kingdom restored, to you shall be given. Come, enter My joy, sit down on the throne; Bright crowns are in waiting; hold fast till I come.
We'll watch unto prayer with lamps burning bright; He comes to all others a thief in the night. We know He is near, but know not the day-- As spring shows that summer is not far away.
Yes! this is our hope, 'tis built on His word-- The glorious appearing of Jesus, our Lord; Of promises all, it stands as the sum: Behold I come quickly; hold fast till I come.
