JESUS CHRIST >> SECOND ADVENT
SDAH 200
The Lord is coming, let this be
The herald note of jubilee;
And when we meet and when we part
The salutation from the heart.
Text
1
The Lord is coming, let this be
The herald note of jubilee;
And when we meet and when we part
The salutation from the heart.
Refrain:
The Lord is coming, let this be
The herald note of jubilee,
The herald note of jubilee.
2
The Lord is coming, sound it forth
From east to west, from south to north;
Speed on! Speed on the tidings glad,
That none who love Him may be sad.
3
The Lord is coming, swift and sure
And all His judgments shall endure,
And none can hope to escape His wrath,
Who walk not in the narrow path.
4
This earth, with her ten thousand wrongs
Will soon be tuned to nobler songs;
Our praise shall then, in realms of light,
With all His universe unite.

Apparently, the words were loved and well-received among the Adventists that it was found in every SDA hymnal printed since then. The original poem has eight stanzas.

The Son of man regains what Adam lost. It also suggests that He shares common ground with humanity. The title Son of man points to His bond with humankind. From the broad context of the Scriptures, we can infer that the Son of man not only represents His people in the heavenly tribunal, but He also can identify with them because He partakes of their human nature (Heb. 2:14, Heb. 4:15). We also should note that the Son of man of Daniel 7 must be identified with the Prince of the Host (Dan. 8:11), the “man clothed in linen” (Dan. 10:5), and Michael (Dan. 10:13, Dan. 12:1). To conclude, the Son of man of Daniel 7 is clearly the Messiah Jesus Christ, who comes to the presence of God the Father as a representative of the saints (1 John 2:1) on the antitypical day of atonement.

When God commanded Moses to build a sanctuary, He made this promise: “I will walk among you, and will be your God, and ye shall be My people.” (Leviticus 26:11, 12). The coming of Christ to be with God’s people is the message of the services in the sanctuary that was built by Moses. What a great day it will be for God’s people when this promise will be fulfilled at the second coming of Jesus to be with all of God’s people forever.
