Lord Jesus, come,
Thy saints are waiting for Thee,
Their love ensuring
a deep and growing longing:
Thou art the One
whose precious blood has bought us;
Thou art the One
through whom we have adoption;
Thou art the One by
whom our hearts are conquered.
Thy loveliness
retains us in our orbit
About Thyself the
Bright Star of the Morning
Whom now we see as
eminently lordly,
And justifying each
title we might posit.
We long to see Thy
face since Thou hast drawn us;
We long to hear Thy
voice of rapture calling;
We long to praise
where Thou hast been exalted.
Away for a few days to Buckie - which will probably include a needed break from computers!
If the Lord will - and He has not come to take us!
Amen, yes.
ReplyDeleteMy soul longs for that day.
