We Would See Jesus (CD)

Christ’s followers have eagerly awaited His return ever since His ascension. He had promised to come again, and angels repeated that promise to His disciples. His return was a favorite theme of the New Testament writers, and the theme of its hope recurred again and again throughout history. In the mid 18th century a world-wide revival of interest in the second coming of Christ occurred. Everywhere preachers proclaimed it—including the Millerite Adventists of the early 1840s.

Today, once more, Christians around the world are looking eagerly for the return of Christ. Because this Blessed Hope is so precious to Christians, it is little wonder that poets and musicians have composed hymns that have meant so much to those who long for His return. The songs on this CD capture the excitement and yearning of believers the world over. The CD liner gives a brief and interesting history for each song.
