Song Lyrics
[Verse 1] The advent of our King Our thoughts must now employ; Then let us meet him on the road With songs of holy joy. [Verse 2] The co-eternal Son A maiden's offspring see; A servant's form Christ putteth on, To set his people free. [Verse 3] In glory from his throne Again will Christ descend, And summon all who are his own To joys that never end. [Verse 4] Our joyful praises sing To Christ, who set us free; Like tribute to the Father bring, And Holy Ghost, to thee.
