Come, thou long-expected Jesus

Author: Charles Wesley Hymnal: The Seventh-Day Adventist Hymn and Tune Book #845 (1886) Topics: Waiting for Christ Closing Work Lyrics: 1 Come, thou long-expected Jesus, Born to set thy people free; From our fears and sins release us, Let us find our rest in thee; Israel's strength and consolation, Hope of all the saints thou art; Dear Desire of every nation, Joy of every longing heart. 2 Born, thy people to deliver; Born a child and yet a king; Born to reign o'er us forever; Now thy precious kingdom bring: By thine own eternal Spirit Rule in all our hearts alone; By thine all-sufficient merit Raise us to thy glorious throne.

This is not my place of resting

Author: Horatius Bonar Hymnal: The Seventh-Day Adventist Hymn and Tune Book #846 (1886) Topics: Waiting for Christ Closing Work Lyrics: 1 This is not my place of resting; Mine's a city yet to come; Onward, to it, I am hastening, On to my eternal home. In it, all is light and glory; O'er it shines a nightless day; Every trace of sin's sad story, All the curse has passed away. 2 There the Lamb, our Shepherd, leads us By the streams of life along; On the freshest pastures feeds us, Turns our sighing into song. Soon we pass this desert dreary, Soon we bid farewell to pain; Nevermore are sad and weary, Never, never sin again. Tune Title: GREENVILLE

Time, thou speedest on but slowly

Author: Catherine Winkworth Hymnal: The Seventh-Day Adventist Hymn and Tune Book #849 (1886) Topics: Waiting for Christ Closing Work Lyrics: 1 Time, thou speedest on but slowly; Hours, how tardy is your pace! Ere with him, the high and holy, I hold converse face to face. Here is naught but care and mourning Comes a joy, it will not stay; Fairly shines the sun at dawning, Night will soon o'ercloud the day. 2 Onward then! not long I wander Ere my Saviour comes for me, And with him abiding yonder, All his glory I shall see. O, the music and the singing Of the hosts redeemed by love! O, the hallelujahs ringing Through the halls of light above! Tune Title: ONWARD

Is quickened, and tells in its mystical flow, The approach of the Bridegroom and Bride. 3 The love and the joy and the peace of the blest, Like the day-star, arise in the soul, And we taste the first-fruits of the Eden of rest, And we hasten to enter the goal.

Day of redemption! when shall we behold

Author: Anon. Hymnal: The Seventh-Day Adventist Hymn and Tune Book #863 (1886) Topics: Waiting for Christ Closing Work Lyrics: 1 Day of redemption! when shall we behold Earth overwhelmed with thy splendor untold? Dark is this desert, and weary our road; O for the day-spring that cometh from God! Deep are earth's shadows, its sorrows and gloom; Oft is its gladness laid low in the tomb: Joy and rejoicing like shadows depart, Grief and affliction abide in the heart. 2 Many the sorrows this sad earth has known; Hopes have been withered, and hearts have been torn; Tears have been gushing from fountains of grief; O for that morning which brings us relief! Ah, we have tasted of blessings to come; On we have hasted to gain them at home; There, in the light of eternity's morn, Glad shall the saints sing the conquerors' song. Tune Title: MORNING LIGHT
