| 1. Christ is the hope of glory,
my very life is He,
He has regenerated
and saturated me;
He comes to change my body
by His subduing might
Like to His glorious body
in glory bright!
Refrain.
He comes, He comes,
Christ comes to glorify me!
My body He値l transfigure,
like His own it then will be.
He comes? He comes,
redemption to apply!
As Hope of glory He will come,
His saints to glorify.
2. Christ is the hope of glory,
He is God痴 mystery;
He shares with me God痴 fulness
and brings God into me.
He comes to make me blended
with God in every way,
That I may share His glory
with Him for aye.
Refrain.
He comes, He comes,
Christ comes to glorify me!
My body He値l transfigure,
like His own it then will be.
He comes? He comes,

As Hope of glory He will come,
His saints to glorify.

Redemption to my body,

He comes to make my body

And swallow death
forever in victory.
Refrain.
He comes, He comes,
Christ comes to glorify me!
My body He値l transfigure,
like His own it then will be.
He comes? He comes,

As Hope of glory He will come,
His saints to glorify.
4. Christ is the hope of glory,
He is my history:
His life is my experience,
for He is one with me;
He comes to bring me
into His glorious liberty,
That one with Him completely
I値l ever be.
Refrain.
He comes, He comes,
Christ comes to glorify me!
My body He値l transfigure,
like His own it then will be.
He comes? He comes,
redemption to apply!
As Hope of glory He will come,
His saints to glorify.
