EN 4631 He Expecteth
Acts.16.9
Versi Version 1
1
He expecteth, He expecteth!
Down the stream of time,
Still the words come softly ringing,
Like a chime.
2
Oft times faint, now waxing louder
As the hour draws near,
When the King in all His glory,
Shall appear.
3
He is waiting with long patience
For His crowning day,
For that kingdom which shall never
Pass away.
4
And till ev’ry tribe and nation
Bow before His throne,
He expecteth loyal service
From His own.
5
He expecteth—but He heareth
Still the bitter cry
From earth’s millions, “Come and help us,
For we die.”
6
He expecteth—doth He see us
Busy here and there,
Heedless of those pleading accents
Of despair?
7
Shall we—dare we—disappoint Him?
Brethren, let us rise!
He Who died for us is watching
From the skies.
8
Watching till His royal banner
Floateth far and wide,
Till He seeth of His travail
Satisfied!
