1. Lo He comes! whom every nation, Taught of God, desired to see, Filled with hope and expectation That He would their Savior be. Sing, o sing with exultation, Lo! He calls us to our home; Peace, redemption, joy, salvation, Now from Heav'n to earth are come.
2. See He comes! Whom kings and sages, Prophets, patriarchs of old, Disant climes and countless ages, Waited eager to behold. Sing, o sing with exultation, Haste we to our Father's home; Peace, redemption, joy, salvation, Now from Heav'n to earth are come.
3. Δ See the Lamb of God appearing, God of God, from Heav'n above; See the Heav'nly Bridegroom cheering His dear Bride with words of love! Glory to th'Eternal Father, Glory to th'Incarnate Son Glory to the Holy Spirit, Glory to the Three in One!
