Thy Kingdom Come, O God
"Thy kingdom come." - Matt 6:10
GOSPEL•
6 VERSES
VERSE 1
Thy kingdom come, O God,
Thy rule, O Christ, begin;
Break with Thine iron rod
The tyrannies of sin.
VERSE 2
Where is Thy reign of peace
And purity, and love?
When shall all hatred cease
As in the realms above?
VERSE 3
When comes the promised time
That war shall be no more,
And lust, oppression, crime,
Shall flee Thy face before?
VERSE 4
We pray Thee, Lord, arise,
And come in Thy great might;
Revive our longing eyes,
Which languish for Thy sight.
VERSE 5
Men scorn Thy sacred Name,
And wolves devour Thy fold;
By many deeds of shame
We learn that love grows cold.
VERSE 6
O'er heathen lands afar
Thick darkness broodeth yet;
Arise, O Morning Star,
Arise, and never set.
