Lyrics

Verse 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!

Verse 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.

Verse 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!
