Lyics

We wait for thee all glorious One!
We look for thine appearing;
We bear thy name, and on the throne
We see thy presence cheering.
Faith, even now, uplifts its brow,
And sees the Lord descending,
And with him bliss unending.


We wait for thee; already thou
Hast all our heart's submission;
And though the spirit sees thee now,
We long for open vision;
When ours shall be sweet rest with thee,
And pure unfading pleasure,
And life in endless measure.


We wait for thee in certain hope,
The time will soon be over;
With child like longing, we look up,
The glory to discover.
O, bliss, to share thy triumph there,
When home with joy and singing,
The Lord his saints is bringing.
