Father, when shall all the wea­ry earth
Cease from sigh­ing and ring out its mirth?
Triumph in its grand, im­mor­tal birth,
Into won­drous life with God.

Refrain

Christ is com­ing as the King of kings;
Shout, ye ran­somed, o’er the grace He brings;
Hark! the whole earth with the wel­come rings,
Hallelujah, praise His name!

Savior, when shall my poor sin­ful soul
On Thee all its sins and sor­row roll?
Know Thy full sal­va­tion and be whole?
When, my Je­sus, wilt Thou come?

Refrain

Enter now up­on Thy glo­ri­ous reign!
Come and raise to life what sin hath slain!
O’er my heart and o’er the world re­gain
Thy do­min­ion! Je­sus, come!
