Come Lord Jesus, Come!

This song was on my heart and lips this morning. It is my prayer now, and oh Lord would that it always might be!

Our Savior pierced on the cross, all for mercy to us

Broke the power of sin and rose again

Now He sits enthroned, His coming hour unknown

And we long to see Jesus come to His own

And with full hearts, we cry:

Come Lord Jesus, come!

Split the heavens with Your glory

Come Lord Jesus, come!

Fill our eyes with Your majesty

Then we'll bow down and then we'll confess

That You are Lord, Jesus come!

We await Your return, You promise in Your Word

That at trumpet's sound You will come down

Our King upon a cloud, every knew will bow

And we'll worship then as we worship now

And with full hearts, we cry:
