The Advent of Our King

Author: Charles Coffin; Robert Campbell, 1814-1868 Meter: 6.6.8.6 Appears in 13 hymnals Lyrics: 1 The advent of our King Our thoughts must now employ; Then let us meet him on the road With songs of holy joy. 2 The co-eternal Son A maiden's offspring see; A servant's form Christ putteth on, To set his people free. 3 Daughter of Sion rise To greet thine infant King; Nor let thy stubborn heart despise The pardon he doth bring. 4 In glory from his throne Again will Christ descend, And summon all who are his own To joys that never end. 5 Let deeds of darkness fly Before the approaching morn, For unto sin 'tis ours to die And serve the Virgin-born. 6 Our joyful praises sing To Christ, who set us free; Like tribute to the Father bring, And Holy Ghost, to thee.

Lift up your hearts, let love be fed Through death and life in broken bread. Topics: Rites of the Church Marriage Scripture: 1 Corinthians 12 Used With Tune: O WALY WALY
