Representative Text

1 The time is come, Thou shalt arise,
And scatter Israel’s enemies!
O list to Judah’s plaintive cry,
And turn to joy their sorrow.

Refrain:
My Savior so dear,
Lord Jesus, appear;
We long for our home,
Come quickly, Lord Jesus, come.

2 For like a flood has come the foe,
His gathering forces daily grow,
The knee to him we will not bow;
Lift up, O Lord, Thy standard. [Refrain]

3 The way is hard, the path is steep,
And darkness gathers o’er the deep;
’Tis only Thou canst shield and keep
Me, in this hour of danger. [Refrain]

4 I wait to see the parting cloud,
I wait to hear the trumpet loud;
I wait with deep desirings bowed,
To see Thee in Thy glory. [Refrain]
