[Verse 1]
 C
Our Lord is now rejected

F                  C
And by the world disowned,
By the many still neglected
                G
And by the few enthroned;

                        C
But soon He’ll come in glory!

F                    C
The hour is drawing nigh,

C                F       C     G      C
For the crowning day is coming By and by.
[Chorus]
F
O the crowning day is coming!

     C
Is coming by and by!
When our Lord shall come in power
   G
And glory from on high!

C
O the glorious sight will gladden

F                       C
Each waiting, watchful eye,

C                F       C     G      C
In the crowning day that’s coming By and by.
[Verse 2]
C
The heavens shall glow with splendour;

F                  C
But brighter far than they
The saints shall shine in glory
 C                     G
As Christ shall them array:

                   C
The beauty of the Savior

        F           C
Shall dazzle every eye

C                F       C     G      C
In the crowning day that’s coming By and by.
[Chorus]
F
O the crowning day is coming!

     C
Is coming by and by!
When our Lord shall come in power
   G
And glory from on high!

C
O the glorious sight will gladden

F                       C
Each waiting, watchful eye,

C                F       C     G      C
In the crowning day that’s coming By and by.
[Verse 3]
C
Our pain shall then be over,

F                  C
We’ll sin and sigh no more;
Behind us all our sorrow,
C                     G
And nought but joy before.

               C
A joy in our Redeemer

    F             C
As we to Him are nigh,

C                F       C     G      C
In the crowning day that’s coming By and by.
[Chorus]
F
O the crowning day is coming!

     C
Is coming by and by!
When our Lord shall come in power
   G
And glory from on high!

C
O the glorious sight will gladden

F                       C
Each waiting, watchful eye,

C                F       C     G      C
In the crowning day that’s coming By and by.
[Verse 4]
C
Let all who look for “hasten”

F                  C
The coming joyful day

C
By earnest consecration

C                     G
To walk the narrow way;

                     C
By gathering in the lost ones

   F             C
For whom our Lord did die,

C                F       C     G      C
For the crowning day that’s coming By and by.
[Chorus]
F
O the crowning day is coming!

     C
Is coming by and by!
When our Lord shall come in power
   G
And glory from on high!

C
O the glorious sight will gladden

F                       C
Each waiting, watchful eye,

C                F       C     G      C
In the crowning day that’s coming By and by.
