Thou art coming, O my Saviour!

Author: Frances R. Havergal Appears in 119 hymnals Topics: Christ Second Advent; Christ King; Judgment; Lord's Supper; Lord's Supper In Memory of Him Lyrics: 1 Thou art coming, O my Saviour! Thou art coming, O my King! In Thy beauty all resplendent, In Thy glory all transcendent; Well may we rejoice and sing; Coming: in the opening east Herald brightness slowly swells; Coming: O Thou glorious Priest! Hear we not Thy golden bells? 2 Thou art coming, Thou art coming; We shall meet Thee on Thy way; We shall see Thee, we shall know Thee, We shall bless Thee, we shall show Thee All our hearts could never say; What an anthem that will be, Music rapturously sweet, Pouring out our love to Thee At Thine own all-glorious feet. 3 Thou art coming; at Thy table We are witnesses for this; While rememb'ring hearts Thou meetest In communion clearest, sweetest, Earnest of our coming bliss; Showing not Thy death alone, And Thy love exceeding great, But Thy coming, and Thy throne, All for which we long and wait. 4 Thou art coming; we are waiting With a hope that cannot fail; Asking not the day or hour, Resting on Thy word of power, Anchored safe within the veil. Time appointed may be long, But the vision must be sure; Certainty shall make us strong, Joyful patience can endure. 5 O the joy to see Thee reigning, Thee, our own belovèd Lord! Every tongue Thy Name confessing, Worship, honor, glory, blessing Brought to Thee with one accord; Thee, our Master, and our Friend, Vindicated and enthroned; Unto earth's remotest end Glorified, adored, and owned! Amen. Used With Tune: BEVERLY

God, we name you sovereign Lord! Mighty King whom angels worship, Father, by your Church adored: all creation shows your glory, heaven and earth draw near your throne, singing, 'Holy, holy, holy, Lord of hosts, and God alone!' 2 True apostles, faithful prophets, saints who set their world ablaze, martyrs, once unknown, unheeded, join one growing song of praise, while your Church on earth confesses one majestic Trinity: Father, Son and Holy Spirit, God, our hope eternally. 3 Jesus Christ, the King of glory, everlasting Son of God, humble was your virgin mother, hard the lonely path you trod. By your cross is sin defeated, hell confronted face to face, heaven opened to believers, sinners justified by grace. 4 Christ, at God's right hand victorious, you will judge the world you made; Lord, in mercy help your servants for whose freedom you have paid. Raise us up from dust to glory, guard us from all sin today; King enthroned above all praises, save your people, God, we pray!

Fire of the Spirit, burn for our enduing, wind of the Spirit, fan the living flame! We turn to Christ amid our fear and failing, the will that lacks the courage to be free, the weary labours, all but unavailing, to bring us nearer what a church should be. 2 Lord of the Church, we seek a Father's blessing, a true repentance and a faith restored, a swift obedience and a new possessing, filled with the Holy Spirit of the Lord! We turn to Christ from all our restless striving, unnumbered voices with a single prayer: the living water for our souls' reviving, in Christ to live, and love and serve and care. 3 Lord of the Church, we long for our uniting, true to one calling, by one vision stirred; one cross proclaiming and one creed reciting, one in the truth of Jesus and his word. So lead us on; till toil and trouble ended, one Church triumphant one new song shall sing, to praise his glory, risen and ascended, Christ over all, the everlasting King!
