Intro
Verse 1
The Church Has Waited Long, Her Absent Lord To See
And Still In Loneliness She Waits, A Friendless Stanger She
Age After Age Has Gone, Sun After Sun Has Set
And Still, In Weeds Of Widowhood, She Weeps A Mourner Yet
Chorus
Come Then, Lord Jesus, Come
Come Then, Lord Jesus
Come Then, Lord Jesus Come
Come, Come
Verse 2
The Serpent's Brood Increase, The Powers Of Hell Grow Bold
The Conflicts Thickens, Faith Is Low, And Love Is Waxing Cold
How Long, O Lord Our God, Holy, True And Good
Wilt Thou Not Judge Thy Suffering Church, Her Sighs And Tears And Blood?
Chorus
Come Then, Lord Jesus, Come
Come Then, Lord Jesus
Come Then, Lord Jesus Come
Come, Come
Verse 3
We Long To Hear Thy Voice, To See Thee Face To Face
To Share Thy Crown And Glory Then, As Now We Share Thy Grace
Should Not The Loving Bride, The Absent Bridegroom Mourn?
Should She Not Wear The Weeds Of Grief, Until Her Lord Return?
Chorus
Come Then, Lord Jesus, Come
Come Then, Lord Jesus
Come Then, Lord Jesus Come
Come, Come
Verse 4
The Whole Creation Growns, And Wait To Hear That Voice
That Shall Restore Her Comeliness, And Make Her Wastes Rejoice
Come Lord And Wipe Away, The Curse, The Sin, The Stain
And Make This Blighted World Of Ours, Thine Own Fair World Again
Chorus
Come Then, Lord Jesus, Come
Come Then, Lord Jesus
Come Then, Lord Jesus Come
Come, Come
