Second Sunday in Advent

Earth is past away and gone,
All her glories every one,
All her pomp is broken down;
God is reigning — God alone!

All her high ones lowly lie,
All her mirth hath passed by,
All her merry-hearted sigh;
God is reigning — God on high!

No more sorrow, no more night;
Perfect joy, and purest light;
With His spotless saints and bright,
God is reigning in the height!

Blessing, praise, and glory bring,
Offer every holy thing;
Everlasting praises sing;
God is reigning, God our King!
