The Lord Is Come! On Syrian Soil,
The Child Of Poverty And Toil;
The Man Of Sorrows, Born To Know
Each Varying Shade Of Human Woe:
His Joy, His Glory, To Fulfill,
In Earth And Heaven, His Fathers Will;
On Lonely Mount, By Festive Board,
On Bitter Cross, Despised, Adored.
The Lord Is Come! In Him We Trace
The Fullness Of Gods Truth And Grace;
Throughout Those Words And Acts Divine
Gleams Of The Eternal Splendor Shine;
And From His Inmost Spirit Flow,
As From A Height Of Sunlit Snow,
The Rivers Of Perennial Life,
To Heal And Sweeten Natures Strife.
The Lord Is Come! In Every Heart
Where Truth And Mercy Claim Apart;
In Every Land Where Right Is Might,
And Deeds Of Darkness Shun The Light;
In Every Church Where Faith And Love
Lift Earthward Thoughts To Things Above;
In Every Holy, Happy Home,
We Bless Thee, Lord, That Thou Hast Come.
