[The church in her militant state]

The Spirit and the bride say, Come. —xxii. 17.

The church in her militant state
Is weary, and cannot forbear,
The saints in an agony wait
To see Him again in the air,
The Spirit invites, in the bride,
Her heavenly Lord to descend,
And place her enthroned at His side
In glory that never shall end.
