Thou shalt know him
Thou shalt know him
When he comes,
Not by any din of drums
Nor the vantage of his airs
Nor by any thing he wears
Neither by his crown
Nor his gown
For his presence known shall be
By the holy harmony
That his coming makes in me

It was later put to music. You can find video’s on youtube that have some wonderful choirs performing this piece. Here is a children’s choir singing “Thou shalt know him when he comes.”
