Come, Lord

Come, Lord
Source unknown
Come, Lord, and tarry not; Come, for Thy saints still wait; Come, for creation groans, Come, and begin Thy reign Horatius Bonar
Bring the long-looked-for day;
O why these years of waiting here,
These ages of delay?
Daily ascends their sigh;
The Spirit and the Bride say, &ls;Come':
Dost Thou not hear the cry?
Impatient of Thy stay,
Worn out with these long years of ill,
These ages of delay.
Come, and make all things new;
Build up this ruined earth;
Restore our faded Paradise,
Creation's second birth.
Of everlasting peace;
Come, take Thy Kingdom to Thyself,
