Christ is Coming.

By H. JENKINES.

CHRIST is coming, let creation Bid her groans and travail cease. Let the glorious proclamation Hope restore, and faith increase, Hallelujah, Come thou blessed Prince of peace.
Earth can now but tell the story Of thy bitter cross and pain ; She shall yet behold thy glory, When thou comest back to reign, Hallelujah, Let each heart repeat the strain.
Though once cradled in a manger, Oft no pillow but the sod, Here an alien and a stranger, Mocked of men : but owned of God, All creation, Yet shall own thy kingly rod.
Long thine exiles have been sleeping, Far from home and thee, but they Then shall rise in glory shining, Soon they shall thy glory see, Hallelujah, Hail the joyous jubilee.
With a blessed hope before us, Let no harp remain unstrung ; Let the mighty advent chorus Onward roll from tongue to tongue, Hallelujah, Come, Lord Jesus, quickly come. H. JENKINES.
