201 Christ Is Coming

[1]
Christ is coming! let creation
Bid her groans and travail cease;
Let the glorious proclamation
Hope restore and faith increase;
Christ is coming!
Christ is coming!
Come Thou blessed Prince of Peace!
Come Thou blessed Prince of Peace!

[2]
Earth can now but tell the story
Of Thy bitter cross and pain;
She shall yet behold Thy glory
When Thou comest back to reign;
Christ is coming!
Christ is coming!
Let each heart repeat the strain.
Let each heart repeat the strain.

[3]
With that "blessed hope" before us
Let no harp remain unstrung;
Let the mighty advent chorus
Onward roll from tongue to tongue:
Christ is coming!
Christ is coming!
Come Lord Jesus quickly come!
Come Lord Jesus quickly come!
