Thy kingdom come, O God!

Author: Lewis Hensley Meter: 6.6.6.6 Appears in 129 hymnals Lyrics: Thy kingdom come, O God! Thy rule, O Christ, begin! Break with thine iron rod The tyrannies of sin! Where is thy reign of peace, And purity, and love? When shall all hatred cease, As in the realms above? When comes the promised time That war shall be no more, Oppression, lust, and crime Shall flee thy face before? We pray thee, Lord, arise, And come in thy great might; Revive our longing eyes, Which languish for thy sight. O'er heathen lands afar Thick darkness broodeth yet: Arise, O Morning Star, Arise, and never set. Amen.

Author: James Stephens Meter: 6.6.6.6 Appears in 2 hymnals Lyrics: 1. The Bridegroom meets His bride, Arrayed in garments white; She waged a lifelong war, And conquered in His might. 2. The banner o’er her floats, That o’er her floated long; The mighty conqueror, Leads on the victor throng. 3. ’Tis not to conflict now, The sound of strife is o’er; All tears are wiped away, And sighs are heard no more. 4. ’Tis to the banquet spread, To join the festal throng; Theirs is the shout of praise, Theirs the eternal song. 5. The victor’s crown they wear, Crowned is their living head: The wealth of Heaven is theirs, His glory on them shed. Used With Tune: ST. CECILIA (Hayne) Text Sources: Hymns of Consecration and Faith, by James Mountain (London: Marshall Brothers, new & enlarged edition, circa 1902), number 418
