James 5:8: Be ye also patient; stablish your hearts: for, &c

Ye faithful, patient souls, attend
That second coming of your Lord:
Expect Him first your sin to end,
To verify His hallowing word:
Your hearts, resolved to wait His grace,
Shall perfect in due season be;
And I shall then behold His face,
And dwell in Him who dwells in me.

We know, the solemn day draws nigh,
When Jesus shall appear again:
Hasten, O Lord, and bow the sky,
And here begin Thy glorious reign,
The number of Thy saints complete;
And let the partners of Thy power,
Casting their crowns before Thy feet,
On earth,—and then in heaven, adore.
