Don\u2019t Tarry Lord<\/b><\/p>\n
Come, Lord, and tarry not; Bring the long-looked-for day; O why these years of waiting here, These ages of delay?<\/p>\n
Come, for Thy saints still wait; Daily ascends their sigh; The Spirit and the Bride say, \u2018Come\u2019: Dost Thou not hear the cry?<\/p>\n
Come, for creation groans, Impatient of Thy stay, Worn out with these long years of ill, These ages of delay.<\/p>\n
Come, and make all things new; Build up this ruined earth; Restore our faded Paradise, Creation\u2019s second birth.<\/p>\n
Come, and begin Thy reign Of everlasting peace; Come, take Thy Kingdom to Thyself, Great King of Righteousness.<\/p>\n
