HYMN XIII.
[Come, Desire of nations, come!]
Come, Desire of nations, come!
Hasten, Lord, the general doom,
Hear the Spirit and the bride,
Come, and take us to Thy side.
Hasten, Lord, the general doom,
Hear the Spirit and the bride,
Come, and take us to Thy side.
Thou who hast our place prepared,
Make us meet for our reward,
Then with all Thy saints descend,
Then our earthly trial end.
Make us meet for our reward,
Then with all Thy saints descend,
Then our earthly trial end.
Mindful of Thy chosen race,
Shorten these vindictive days;
Who for full redemption groan,
Hear us now, and save Thine own.
Shorten these vindictive days;
Who for full redemption groan,
Hear us now, and save Thine own.
Now destroy the man of sin,
Now Thine ancient flock bring in,
Fill'd with righteousness Divine,
Claim a ransom'd world for Thine.
Now Thine ancient flock bring in,
Fill'd with righteousness Divine,
Claim a ransom'd world for Thine.
Plant the heavenly kingdom here,
Glorious in Thy saints appear,
Speak the sacred number seal'd,
Speak the mystery fulfill'd.
Glorious in Thy saints appear,
Speak the sacred number seal'd,
Speak the mystery fulfill'd.
Take to Thee Thy royal power,
Reign, when sin shall be no more,
Reign, when time no more shall be,
Reign to all eternity.
Reign, when sin shall be no more,
Reign, when time no more shall be,
Reign to all eternity.
