7927. Come, O Thou Mighty Savior

1 Come, O Thou mighty Savior,
We look for Thine appearing;
Descend, we pray, Thy love display,
Our waiting spirits cheering.

2 Come, clothed with glorious power;
Let all thy saints adore Thee,
And let Thy Word, the Spirit’s sword,
Subdue Thy foes before Thee.

3 May every heart with gladness
Thine offered grace receiving,
Now cease from sin, and, pure within,
Have peace, in Thee believing.

4 Then when Thou com’st to judgment,
On flying clouds descending,
May we rejoice when, at Thy voice,
The solid earth is rending.
