 1 

We love Thy coming, Lord!

We know not when 'twill be,

But turn from all distracting things

Thine own dear face to see.

 
 2 

We serve the living God

And wait His Son to see;

For this we need faith, love, and hope,

Increasing constantly.

 
 3 

In Thy dear presence, Lord,

We hope we all may be

A crown of glory and a joy

To those we then shall see.

 
 4 

We love Thy coming, Lord;

The time is very nigh.

Our hearts unblameable must be

To greet Thee from on high.

 
 5 

The Lord Himself shall come

With loud assembling word,

And all the saints in Christ shall be

Forever with the Lord.

 
 6 

We're children of the day,

We're children of the light;

That day should never come to us

As does a thief at night.

 
 7 

Lord, wholly sanctify

And blameless let us be

In spirit, soul, and body too

For that blest day with Thee.
