Hold Fast Till I Come

Verse 1 ~

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."

Verse 2 ~

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.

Verse 3 ~

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."
