09:27 Soon, soon will the Savior In glory appear 09:32 And soon will the kingdom come 09:37 He's coming, coming Coming soon I know 09:43 Coming back to this earth again 09:48 And the weary pilgrims 09:53 Will to glory go 09:54 When the Savior comes to reign 10:00 The mossy old graves Where the pilgrims sleep 10:05 Shall be open as before 10:10 And the millions that sleep In the mighty deep 10:14 Shall live on this earth once more 10:19 He's coming, coming Coming soon I know 10:26 Coming back to this earth again 10:30 And the weary pilgrims 10:35 Will to glory go 10:36 When the Savior comes to reign 10:59 He's coming, coming 11:03 Coming soon I know 11:06 Coming back to this earth again 11:11 And the weary pilgrims 11:16 Will to glory go 11:18 When the Savior comes to reign 11:23 Hallelujah, Amen!
