Earth was waiting, spent and restless
Author: W. C. Smith (1824-1908) Hymnal: Hymns for Today's Church (2nd ed.) #54 (1987) Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.7 Lyrics: 1 Earth was waiting, spent and restless,
with a mingled hope and fear,
faithful men and women praying,
'Surely, Lord, the day is near:
the Desire of all the nations —
it is time he should appear!'
2 then the Spirit of the Highest
to a virgin meek came down,
and he burdened her with blessing,
and he pained he with renown;
for she bore the Lord's anointed
for his cross and for his crown.
3 Earth has groaned and laboured for him
since the ages first began,
for in him was hid the secret
which through all the ages ran —
Son of Mary, Son of David,
Son of God, and Son of Man. Topics: God, Saviour Promised and Incarnate; Advent 4 The Annunciation; Christmas 1 The Incarnation Languages: English Tune Title: LINGWOOD

Jesus, Come, for We Invite You
Author: Christopher Idle Hymnal: Hymns and Devotions for Daily Worship #55 (2024) Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.7 Lyrics: 1. Jesus, come! for we invite you,
Guest and master, friend and Lord;
Now as once at Cana's wedding,
Speak, and let us hear your word:
Lead us through our need or doubting,
Hope be born and joy restored.
2. Jesus, come! transform our pleasures,
Guide us into paths unknown;
Bring your gifts, command your servants,
Let us trust in you alone:
Though your hand may work in secret,
All shall see what you have done.
3. Jesus, come! in new creation,
Heav'n brought near in power divine;
Give your unexpected glory
Changing water into wine:
Rouse the faith of your disciples —
Come, our first and greatest Sign!
4. Jesus, come! surprise our dullness,
Make us willing to receive
More than we can yet imagine,
All the best you have to give:
Let us find your hidden riches,
Taste your love, believe, and live! Topics: Epiphany Scripture: John 2:1-12 Languages: English Tune Title: UNION SEMINARY

Jesus Came, the Heavens Adoring
Author: Godfrey Thring Hymnal: The Lutheran Hymnal #56 (1941) Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.7 First Line: Jesus came, the heav'ns adoring Lyrics: 1 Jesus came, the heav'ns adoring,
Came with peace from realms on high;
Jesus came for man's redemption,
Lowly came on earth to die;
Alleluia! Alleluia!
Came in deep humility.
2 Jesus comes again in mercy,
When our hearts are bowed with care;
Jesus comes again in answer
To an earnest, heart-felt prayer,
Alleluia! Alleluia!
Comes to save us from despair.
3 Jesus comes to hearts rejoicing,
Bringing news of sins forgiv'n;
Jesus comes in sounds of gladness,
Leading souls redeemed to heav'n.
Alleluia! Alleluia!
Now the gate of death is riv'n.
4 Jesus comes in joy and sorrow,
Shares alike our hopes and fears;
Jesus comes, whate'er befalls us,
Glads our hearts, and dries our tears;
Alleluia! Alleluia!
Cheering e'en our failing years.
5 Jesus comes on clouds triumphant
When the heavens shall pass away;
Jesus comes again in glory;
Let us, then, our homage pay,
"Alleluia" ever singing
Till the dawn of endless day.
Amen.

Lo, He comes with clouds descending
Author: John Cennick; Charles Wesley Hymnal: The Hymnal #57 (1916) Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.7 Lyrics: 1 Lo, He comes, with clouds descending,
Once for our salvation slain;
Thousand thousand saints attending
Swell the triumph of His train:
Alleluia!
Christ, the Lord, returns to reign.
2 Every eye shall now behold Him,
Robed in dreadful majesty;
Those who set at naught and sold Him,
Pierced, and nailed Him to the tree,
Deeply wailing,
Shall the true Messiah see.
3 Now redemption, long expected,
See in solemn pomp appear:
All His saints, by men rejected,
Now shall meet Him in the air:
Alleluia!
See the day of God appear.
4 Yea, Amen; let all adore Thee,
High on Thine eternal throne:
Saviour, take the power and glory;
Claim the kingdoms for Thine own:
Alleluia!
Thou shalt reign, and Thou alone!
Amen. Topics: Advent Languages: English Tune Title: ST. THOMAS
