Lyrics

The Advent of our God,
Shall be our theme for prayer,
Come let us meet him on the road,
And place for him prepare.

The everlasting Son,
Incarnate deigns to be,
Himself a servant's form puts on,
To set his servants free.

O Zion's daughter rise,
and meet your heavenly King,
Nor let the faithless heart despise,
The peace he comes to bring.

All glory to the Son,
Who comes to set us free,
With Father, Spirit, ever one,
Through all eternity.
