To wait for that appointed day,
When Christ His glories will display,
Be this our one great care:
To do His will, our business here;
No toil to shun, no danger fear,
Resolved the cross to bear.
And though He should
prolong His stay,
And sinners mock at the delay,
His people need not fear;
The Man who wore
the crown of thorns,
Whose claim the world
rejects and scorns,
In glory will appear.
In patience then
we now may rest,
Assured the Father's time is best,
And all His word obey;
We wait till that
blest day shall come;
The Lord will first convey us home,
And then His power display.
