417. Savior, Come

1 Savior, come, Thy saints are waiting,
Waiting for the advent day,
Thence their promised glory dating;
Come and bear Thy saints away.
Come, Lord Jesus, come, Lord Jesus,
Thus Thy waiting people pray.

2 Lord, we wait for Thine appearing;
“Even so,” Thy people say;
Bright the prospect is, and cheering,
Of beholding Thee that day;
When our sorrow, when our sorrow
Shall forever pass away.

3 Till it comes, O keep us steady!
Keep us walking in Thy ways;
At Thy call may we be ready,
On Thee, Lord, with joy to gaze;
And in heaven, and in heaven
Sing Thine everlasting praise.
