Advent
5 O come, Adonai, Lord of might,
Who to Thy tribes, on Sinai's height,
In ancient times didst give the law
In cloud and majesty and awe.

C. Coffin, 1676–1749. Tr. J. Chandler.
Jordanis oras praevia.
ON Jordan's bank the Baptist’s cry
|
Yea, let us each our hearts prepare
|
4 Stretch forth thine hand, to heal our sore,
And make us rise to fall no more;
Once more upon thy people shine,
And fill the world with love divine.
Unison. 5. All praise, eternal Son, to thee
Whose advent sets thy people free,
Whom, with the Father, we adore,
And Holy Ghost, for evermore. Amen.
