We Would See Jesus
Author: Anna B. Warner Hymnal: Christ in Song #870 (1908) Topics: The Home Eternal Waiting for Christ First Line: "We would see Jesus;" for the shadows lengthen Lyrics: 1. "We would see Jesus;" for the shadows lengthen
Across the little landscape of our life;
We would see Jesus, our weak faith to strengthen
For the last conflict in this mortal strife.
2. "We would see Jesus," Rock of our salvation,
Whereon our feet were set with sov'reign grace;
Not life, nor death, with all their agitation,
Can thence remove us, gazing on his face.
3. "We would see Jesus;" other lights are paling,
Which for long years we did rejoice to see;
The blessings of this sinful world are failing;
We would not mourn them, in exchange for Thee.
4. "We would see Jesus;" this is all we're needing,
Strength, joy, and willingness come with the sight;
We would see Jesus, dying, risen, pleading,
Soon to return and end this mortal night!
Languages: English Tune Title: ["We would see Jesus;" for the shadows lengthen]
We Would See Jesus
When God descends with men to dwell
Hymnal: Christ in Song #924 (1908) Topics: The Home Eternal Waiting for Christ Lyrics: 1. When God descends with men to dwell,
And all creation wakes anew,
What tongue can half the wonders tell?
What eye the dazzling glory view?
What eye the dazzling glory view?
2. Celestial streams shall gently flow,
The wilderness shall joyful be,
Lilies on parched grounds shall grow,
And gladness spring on every tree;
And gladness spring on every tree;
3. The high and low shall meet in love,
All pride shall die, and meekness reign,
When Christ descends from worlds above
To dwell with men on earth again.
To dwell with men on earth again. Languages: English
When God descends with men to dwell
Till He Come
Author: Henry Alford Hymnal: Songs for the King's Business #277 (1909) Topics: Waiting for Christ First Line: Till he come, O let the words Tune Title: [Till he come, O let the words]
Till He Come
Till He Come
Author: E. H. Bickersteth Hymnal: Christ in Song #653 (1908) Topics: The Home Eternal Waiting for Christ First Line: "Till He come!" O let the words Lyrics: 1 "Till He come!" O let the words
Linger on the trembling chords;
Let the "little while" between,
In their golden light be seen;
Let us think how heav'n and home
Lie beyond that "Till He come!"
2 When the weary ones we love,
From the cares of earth remove,
When their words of hope and cheer
Fall no longer on our ear,
Hush! be ev'ry murmur dumb,
It is only "Till He come!"
3 Clouds and darkness round us press;
Would we have one sorrow less?
All the sharpness of the cross,
All that tells the world is loss,
Death and darkness and the tomb,
Pain us only "Till He come!"
Languages: English Tune Title: ELTHAM
Till He Come
How Long?
Author: Anon. Hymnal: Christ in Song #716 (1908) Topics: The Home Eternal Waiting for Christ First Line: How long, O Lord our Saviour Lyrics: 1 How long, O Lord our Saviour,
Wilt thou remain away?
Our hearts are growing weary
Of thy so long delay.
O when shall come the moment,
When, brighter far than morn,
The sunshine of thy glory
Shall on thy people dawn?
2 How long, O gracious Master,
Wilt thou thy household leave?
So long hast thou now tarried,
Few thy return believe.
Immersed in sloth and folly,
Thy servants, Lord, we see;
And few of us stand ready
With joy to welcome thee.
3 O, wake thy slumb'ring people;
Send forth the solemn cry;
Let all the saints repeat it,
"The Saviour draweth nigh!"
May all our lamps be burning,
Our loins well girded be,
Each longing heart preparing
With joy thy face to see.
Languages: English Tune Title: WEBB
How Long?
Let us keep steadfast guard
Author: Breviary Hymnal: The Seventh-Day Adventist Hymn and Tune Book #813 (1886) Topics: Waiting for Christ Closing Work Lyrics: 1 Let us keep steadfast guard
With lighted hearts all night,
That when Christ comes, we stand prepared,
And meet him with delight.
2 At midnight's season chill
Lay Paul and Silas bound,
Bound and in prison, sang they still,
And singing, freedom found.
3 Our prison is this earth,
And yet we sing to thee:
Break sin's strong fetters, lead us forth,
Set us, believing, free! Tune Title: EL KADER
Let us keep steadfast guard
I Will Not Let Thee Go
Author: J. Fawcett Hymnal: Christ in Song #844 (1908) Topics: The Home Eternal Waiting for Christ First Line: Thou Coming One, our wants relieve Lyrics: 1. Thou coming One, our wants relieve
In this our evil day;
To all thy tempted followers give
The pow'r to watch and pray.
Long as our fiery trials last,
Long as the cross we bear,
O may our souls on thee be cast,
In all-prevailing pray'r.
2. The pow'r of interceding grace
Give us in faith to claim;
To wrestle till we see thy face,
And know thy hidden name.
Till then thy perfect love impart;
Till thou appear below
Be this the cry of ev'ry heart,
"I will not let thee go."
3. I will not let thee go, unless
Thou tell thy name to me;
With all thy great salvation bless,
And make me all like thee.
Then shall I on the mountain-top
Behold thy open face,
Where faith in sight is swallowed up,
And prayer in joyful praise. Languages: English Tune Title: PERSEVERANCE
I Will Not Let Thee Go
Lift your heads, ye friends of Jesus
Author: Charles Wesley Hymnal: The Seventh-Day Adventist Hymn and Tune Book #855 (1886) Topics: Waiting for Christ Closing Work Lyrics: 1 Lift your heads, ye friends of Jesus,
Partners in his patience here;
Christ, to all believers precious,
Lord of lords shall soon appear.
Mark the tokens
Of his heavenly kingdom near.
2 Yes, the prize shall soon be given;
We his open face shall see;
Love, the earnest of our heaven,
Love our full reward shall be;
Love shall crown us
Kings through all eternity. Tune Title: ZION
Lift your heads, ye friends of Jesus
Thy kingdom come. Thus day by day
Hymnal: Christ in Song #926 (1908) Topics: The Home Eternal Waiting for Christ Lyrics: 1. Thy kingdom come. Thus day by day
We lift our hands to God and pray;
But who has ever duly weighed
The meaning of the words he said?
The meaning of the words he said?
2. Thy kingdom come. O day of joy,
When praise shall every tongue employ;
When hate and strife and war shall cease,
And man with man shall be at peace.
And man with man shall be at peace.
3. Jesus shall reign on Zion's hill,
And all the earth with glory fill;
His word shall Paradise restore,
And sin and death afflict no more.
And sin and death afflict no more. Languages: English
Thy kingdom come. Thus day by day
A little while, our Lord shall come
Author: Anon. Hymnal: The Seventh-Day Adventist Hymn and Tune Book #788 (1886) Topics: Waiting for Christ Closing Work Lyrics: 1 A little while, our Lord shall come,
And we shall wander here no more;
He'll take us to our Father's home,
Where he for us has gone before.
2 A little while, he'll come again;
Let us the precious hours redeem,
Our only grief to give him pain,
Our joy to serve and follow him.
3 A little while, 'twill soon be past,
Why should we shun the shame and cross;
O let us in his footsteps haste,
Counting for him all else but loss.
4 A little while, come, Saviour, come!
For thee thy church has tarried long;
Take thy poor, wearied pilgrims home,
To sing the new, eternal song.
Tune Title: HARTEL
A little while, our Lord shall come
