Since Thy departure from Olivet’s Mountain, Why is Thy coming again so delayed? Thru the long years we have longed for Thy coming; Hast Thou not heard all the prayers that we’ve prayed? |
| Come Thou, come now; Lord, for Thy coming we yearn; All our desire is Thy promised returning, Oh, may Thou quickly return. |

Beloved Lord, since the year Thou ascended Everything here has been tasteless and dry; Often in praying and often in watching, In every movement, for Thee, Lord, we sigh. |

Scenes although lovely, yet when will we meet Thee? Birds and the flowers fair beauty embrace; All are delightsome, but none satisfy me, For I am longing for Thy loving face. |

Lord, we’re impatient awaiting Thy coming, We do not know how much longer ’twill be; From every sunrise to every bright sunset Hope we each moment Thy coming to see. |

Whene’er ’tis raining, or strong winds are blowing, Whene’er the moon shines, or rises the sea, We ever hope to discover Thy coming; How disappointed when no sign of Thee! |

If it were not for the bidding Thou gav’st us, We’d be discouraged, Thy service we’d shirk; But Thou dost want us while waiting Thy coming, For Thee to live and in diligence work. |

Oh Lord, remember the days have been lengthened Since Thou hast promised ere going away; We hope and hope and are endlessly hoping, That Thou wilt come. Canst Thou come e’en today? |
