Przyjdź, Królu wieczny nasz

Representative Text

1 Przyjdź, Królu wieczny nasz,
co wszystko w mocy masz,
błogosław nam!
Ucz nas dla swojej czci
poświęcać życia dni,
a co najmilsze Ci,
w nas króluj sam.

2 Przyjdź, Słowo zbawcze Ty,
i moc miłości swej
ludzkości zjaw!
Człek wszelki, jako żyw,
niech Twój usłyszy zew
dla Twych gotowy żniw
i Twoich spraw.

3 Zbliż się, o Duchu, zbliż,
przyoblecz mocą z wyż
stadeczko swe!
Wszak możesz z śmierci śnień
żywota wywie´ć dzie´ṇ,
do nowych wzbudzić pień,
posilić je.

4 O Boże wiecznej czci,
w najświętszej Trójcy Twej
Zbór Ciebie zna,
niech z aniołami wraz,
gdy wieczny przyjdzie wczas,
zanuci każdy z nas:
Alleluja!
