Christ is coming! let creation

Christ is coming! let creation

From her groans and travail cease

Let the glorious proclamation

Hope restore

and faith increase.

Christ is coming! Christ is coming!

Come

Thou blessed Prince of Peace.

Earth can now but tell the story

Of Thy bitter cross and pain;

She shall yet behold Thy glory

When Thou comest back to reign.

Christ is coming! Christ is coming!

Let each heart repeat the strain.

Long Thy people have been pining

For Thy peace and rest

and Thee

Soon

in heav’nly glory shining

Their Restorer shall they see.

Christ is coming! Christ is coming!

Haste the joyous jubilee.

With that blessed hope before us

Let no harp remain unstrung;

Let the mighty advent chorus

Onward roll on every tongue.

Christ is coming! Christ is coming!

Come

Lord Jesus

quickly come.
