1 Come, thou glorious day of promise,
Come, and spread thy cheerful ray,
When the scattered sheep of Israel
Shall no longer go astray;
When hosannahs, when hosannahs
With united voice they cry.
2 Lord, how long wilt Thou be angry?
Shall Thy wrath for ever burn?
Rise, redeem Thine ancient people,
May they to Messiah turn:
King of Israel,
King of Israel,
Come and set Thy people free.
3 O that Thou wouldst soon to Jacob
Thine own liv'ning Spirit send;
Of their unbelief and mis'ry
Make, O Lord, a speedy end;
Lord, Messiah,
Lord, Messiah,
Quick to Israel descend.
