Maranatha


Lord how we long for your return

Lord just to see your glory we yearn 

Though you left your Spirit with us in this place

Our great desire is to see your face.

The day every eye to you will turn


Lord how we long for your advent

The time parousia is evident

The apotheosis of all time

We are now seeing the signs

You will soon return just as you went

The day we will shed this earthly tent


Maranatha maranatha

We sing to you come quickly Lord 

Maranatha maranatha

We cry out to you in one accord

We long for your appearing precious Lord!


Then we shall see your glory revealed

The day our redemption was sealed

We long for the hour 

When you return in power

The time when every soul to you shall yield


The consummation of all things

When your judgment you shall bring

When every tongue shall confess 

The glory of your righteousness

Until that day our blessed hope we sing


Maranatha maranatha

We sing to you come quickly Lord 

Maranatha maranatha

We cry out to you in one accord

We long for your appearing precious Lord!
