WE LONG FOR YOU, O LORD

Chorus: Risen Saviour, King of glory,\nCome today in mystery;\nLet us share Your death and rising\nTill You come in majesty.\nWe long for you, O Lord,\nWe long for you, O Lord\nCome, make us one with you in love;\nWe long for you, O Lord.\n2. We cannot rest, O Lord,\nWe cannot rest, O Lord.\nCome, Lamb of God and give us peace;\nWe cannot rest, O Lord.\n3. We hunger for you, Lord;\nWe hunger for you, Lord.\nCome, feed us now with living bread;\nWe hunger for you, Lord.\n4. Your flesh is strength, O Lord,\nYour flesh is strength, O Lord.\nCome, holy strong One, make us strong;\nYour flesh is strength, O Lord.\nChristmas and Epiphany\n1 39. A GREAT AND MIGHTY WONDER\nA great and mighty wonder,\n50\nA full and holy cure!\nThe Virgin bears the Infant,\nWith Virgin-honour pure.\nRepeat the hymn again!\n“To God on high be glory,\nAnd peace on earth to men!”\n2. The Word becomes incarnate\nAnd yet remains on high!\nAnd cherubim sing anthems\nTo Shepherds from the sky.\nRepeat the hymn again!\n“To God on high be glory,\nAnd peace on earth to men!”\n3. While thus they sing your Monarch,\nThose bright angelic bands,\nRejoice, ye vales and mountains,\nYe oceans clap your hands.\nRepeat the hymn again!\n“To God on high be glory,\nAnd peace on earth to men!”\n4. Since all ye comes to ransom,\nBy all be he adored,\nThe infant born in Bethl’em,\nThe Saviour and the Lord.\nRepeat the hymn again!\n“To God on high be glory,\nAnd peace on earth to men!”\n5. And idol forms shall perish,\nAnd error shall decay,\nAnd Christ shall wield his sceptre.\nOur Lord and God for ay.\nRepeat the hymn again!\n“To God on high be glory,\nAnd peace on earth to men!” Amen.
