The Advent of Our God

Author: Charles Coffin; John Chandler Hymnal: Hymns and Devotions for Daily Worship #3a (2024) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1. The advent of our God Our pray'rs must now employ, And we must meet him on his road With hymns of holy joy. 2. The everlasting Son Incarnate soon shall be; He will a servant's form put on To make his people free. 3. Daughter of Zion, rise, And greet your lowly King, And do not wickedly despise The mercies he will bring. 4. As judge, in clouds of light, He will come down again, And all his scattered saints unite With him in Heav’n to reign. 5. Before that dreadful day May all our sins be gone; May the old self be put away, And the new self put on! 6. Praise to the Savior Son From all the angel host; Like praise be to the Father done, And to the Holy Ghost. Topics: Advent Scripture: Matthew 24:42-44 Languages: English Tune Title: ST. THOMAS

The Church has waited long

Author: Horatius Bonar Hymnal: Hymns and Devotions for Daily Worship #3b (2024) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1. The Church has waited long Her absent Lord to see, And still in loneliness she waits, A friendless stranger she. 2. The serpent’s brood increase, The pow’rs of Hell grow bold, The conflict thickens, faith is low, And love is waxing cold. 3. We long to hear your voice, To see you face to face, To share your crown and glory then, As now we share your grace. 4. Should not the loving bride The absent bridegroom mourn? Should not she wear the weeds of grief Until her Lord’s return? 5. The whole creation groans And waits to hear the voice That shall restore her loveliness And make her heart rejoice. 6. Come, Lord, and wipe away The curse, the sin, the stain, And make this blighted world of ours Your own fair world again. Topics: Advent Scripture: Matthew 24:42-44 Languages: English Tune Title: ST.
