Christ the Lord, All Power Possessing

1Christ, the Lord, all power possessing,
Parting, mounted heaven's height,
Gracious hands outstretched in blessing,
Clouds received Him from their sight.

RefrainChrist ascending, Christ ascending on the clouds.
Christ approaching, Christ approaching on the clouds.
Christ is coming, Christ is coming on the clouds.

2Daniel views earth's judgment hour,
Angels gathering, open books.
God enthroned in flaming power
For His Son's arrival looks.

3Revelation's word fulfilling,
Trumpet, voices pierce the air.
Saint and sinner faint and thrilling,
Every eye behold Him there.
