Author: Brian Wren Meter: 5.6.6.6.8.8.8.6 Appears in 1 hymnal Scripture: Matthew 13:24-30 Lyrics: 1 Christ will come again,
God's justice to complete,
to reap the fields of time
and sift the weeds from wheat:
then let us passionately care
for peace and justice here on earth,
and evil's rage restrain with love,
till Christ shall come again.
2 Christ will come again
and life shall be complete.
The waters from the throne
shall wash the nations' feet:
then let us passionately care
for health and wholeness here on earth,
and ease our neighbors pain with love,
till Christ shall come again.
3 Christ will come again,
and joy shall be complete
as flames of lightning love
bedeck the judgment seal:
then let us passionately share
the whole great gospel here on earth,
until all things attain their end,
when Christ shall come again. Topics: Health and Wholeness; Jesus Christ Return of; Justice and Peace; Realm of God; Year A Reign of Christ; Year A Easter 5; Year A Proper 11; Year C Easter 6 Used With Tune: IDA
