Hymn #117
The Advent of Our God
Lyrics
Verse 1
The advent of our God
With eager prayers we greet,
And singing haste upon His road
His coming reign to meet.
Verse 2
The everlasting Son
Was born to make us free;
And He a servant’s form put on
To gain our liberty.
Verse 3
As Judge, on clouds of light,
He soon will come again,
His scattered people to unite
With them in heaven to reign.
Verse 4
Praise to the incarnate Son
Who comes to set us free,
With Father, Spirit, ever one,
To all eternity.
