THY KINGDOM COME!

ACROSTIC.

To THEE our supplicating voice we raise, Hear us in Heaven—Thy Holy dwelling place. Yes—let thine ear attend,—while we presume— Knelt at thy feet to pray,—Thy Kingdom Come. In glorious majesty—Thy right maintain, Nor let usurping rebels longer reign; Give to thy people—scatter'd, faint, oppress'd, Despis'd, afflicted, poor, their promis'd rest. Our longing eyes shall watch till Thou appear, More anxious daily—as the time is near. Come quickly, Lord—Thy Kingly power display— O'erwhelm thy foes—Thy rightful sceptre sway; Many are crying—Let thy Kingdom Come,— Expecting shortly to arrive at Home.
