How long, O Lord our Saviour

Author: Anon. Appears in 69 hymnals Topics: Waiting for Christ Closing Work 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 slumbering 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. Used With Tune: WEBB

Died He for me? who caused His pain? For me? who Him to death pursued? Amazing love! How can it be That Thou, my God, should die for me? Amazing love! how can it be That Thou, my God, should die for me! 2 'Tis mystery all; The Immortal dies! Who can explore His strange design? In vain the firstborn seraph tries To sound the depths of love divine. 'Tis mercy all! Let earth adore; Let angel minds inquire no more. 'Tis mercy all! Let earth adore; Let angel minds inquire no more. 3 He left His Father's throne above (So free, so infinite His grace!) Emptied Himself of all but love, And bled for Adam's helpless race. 'Tis mercy all, immense and free, For O my God, it found out me! 'Tis mercy all, immense and free, For O my God, it found out me! 4 Long my imprisoned spirit lay, Fast bound in sin and nature's night; Thine eye diffused a quick'ning ray; I woke, the dungeon flamed with light; My chains fell off, my heart was free, I rose, went forth, and followed thee. My chains fell off, my heart was free, I rose, went forth, and followed thee. 5 No condemnation now I dread; Jesus, and all in Him, is mine; Alive in Him, my living Head, And clothed in righteousness divine, Bold I approach the eternal throne, And claim the crown, through Christ my own. Bold I approach the eternal throne, And claim the crown, through Christ my own. Used With Tune: SAGINA
