Yes, we trust the day is breaking
Your kingdom come, O God
Author: Lewis Hensley, 1824-1905 Meter: 6.6.6.6 Appears in 129 hymnals Scripture: Isaiah 9:2 Lyrics: 1 Your kingdom come, O God!
Your rule, O Christ, begin;
break with your iron rod
the tyrannies of sin.
2 Where is your reign of peace
and purity and love?
When shall all hatred cease
as in the realms above?
3 When comes the promised time,
the end of strife and war,
when lust, oppression, crime
and greed shall be no more?
4 O Lord our God, arise
and come in your great might!
Revive our longing eyes
which languish for your sight.
5 Some scorn your sacred name,
and wolves devour your fold;
by many deeds of shame
we learn that love grows cold.
6 On nations near or far
thick darkness gathers yet:
arise, O Morning Star,
arise and never set! Topics: Church Year Ascension/Reign of Christ; Peace; Social Concerns / Social Justice Used With Tune: ST. CECILIA
Your kingdom come, O God
"Your Kingdom Come" -- On Bended Knee
Author: Frederick Lucian Hosmer (1840-1929) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 102 hymnals Scripture: Isaiah 9:1-7 Lyrics: 1 "Your kingdom come" -- on bended knee
the passing ages pray;
and faithful souls have yearned to see
on earth that kingdom's day.
2 But the slow watches of the night
not less to God belong,
and for the everlasting right
the silent stars are strong.
3 And lo, already on the hills
the flags of dawn appear.
Gird up your loins, ye prophet souls,
proclaim the day is near:
4 the day in whose clear-shining light
all wrong shall stand revealed,
when justice shall be throned with might,
and every heart be healed:
5 when knowledge, hand in hand with peace,
shall walk the earth abroad --
the day of perfect righteousness,
the promised day of God. Topics: Advent; Justice; Kingdom Used With Tune: IRISH
