Can we forget Thy coming

Can we forget Thy coming, The dawning of the day? Two days have passed before us; Oh, third day don’t delay! How long wilt Thou yet tarry? How long Thy coming stay? We long for Thine appearing! Wouldst Thou e’en come today? |
Come quickly, Oh, come quickly! Make haste to come again! We long to be e’er with Thee; Come quickly, Lord! Amen. |

Now in night’s darkest hour The hope of glory shines, Thy Word a lamp in darkness Prophetically reminds; The sureness of Thy coming As dawn’s prevailing ray Shines brighter, ever brighter, Unto the perfect day. |

The echo of the ages Doth summon Thy return, Reflecting Thine own promise From countless hearts that yearn; Oh, that Thou wouldst give heed, Lord, To our most fervent plea: Make haste with Thine appearing And take us up to Thee! |

With eyes on the horizon, Eastward our hearts incline, Still going forth to meet Thee Till daybreak’s glimmer shines Rise, Morning Star, within us Till to the full degree We’d be with Thee forever In rapturous ecstasy. |
