Earth’s long night is almost over-- Christ is coming, coming soon. 3 Long we’ve waited, blest Redeemer, Waited for the first bright ray Of the morn when sin and sorrow At Thy presence flee away. But our vigil’s nearly over; Hope of heav’n, O priceless boon! In the east the glow appearing-- Christ is coming, coming soon. In the east the glow appearing,-- Christ is coming, coming soon.

Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran hymnal #189 (1908) Topics: Second Sunday of Advent Lyrics: 1 Precious Word from God in heaven, Full of blessedness to me, All my trust to thee is given, And my springs all rise in thee; I in thee find all I need, That my soul to God can lead. 2 Gracious Spirit, Thou who showest In the Word the Father's heart, And all needful help bestowest, Light and sense to me impart, That I may the riches see Which God's Word here offers me. 3 In its solemn contemplation From vain cares let me be free, And in prayerful adoration Stay Thou all my thoughts on Thee, That the world may not annoy While I make Thy Word my joy. 4 What I read, help that I heed it, What Thou sayest, let me do; Strength to faith grant as I need it, And remind me still anew That the faith that counts above Is e'er active here in love. 5 Let thy grace sustain, protect me, That my ways ne'er from Thee part; Thy enlightening Word direct me; Seal this treasure in my heart, That my faith may steadfast prove, Till I walk by sight above.
