On a day we least expect Him
Like a thief in the night
Riding clouds of glory
With a burst of Heaven's light
Graves prepare to empty
Angels start to sing
The baby born in Bethlehem
Is returning King of Kings
Great glory, great power, He's coming
Everybody bow down and praise Him
He's worthy, He's coming
With great glory He'll fill the sky
Then those of us who love Him
Whose names are written down
Will be gathered from the four winds
When we hear the trumpet sound
More glory than all angels
More power than all kings
Oh, come let us adore Him
Let the bells of Heaven ring
Great glory, great power, He's coming
Everybody bow down and praise Him
He's worthy, He's coming
With great glory He'll fill the sky
Great glory, great power
Great glory, great power
Great glory, great power, He's coming
Everybody bow down and praise Him
He's worthy, He's coming
With great glory He'll fill the sky
Great glory, He's coming
Everybody bow down and praise Him
He's worthy, He's coming
Everybody bow down
Great glory, great power, He's coming
Everybody bow down and praise Him
He's worthy, He's coming
With great glory He'll fill the sky
Great glory
Great glory, great power, He's coming
Everybody bow down, great glory
