Anonymous - Come, O thou King of kings - текст песни (слова)

Come, O thou King of kings! 
 We've waited long for thee, 
 With healing in thy wings 
 To set thy people free; 
 Come, thou desire of nations, come; 
 Let Israel now be gathered home. 
 
 Come, make an end to sin 
 And cleanse the earth by fire, 
 And righteousness bring in, 
 That Saints may tune the lyre 
 With songs of joy, a happier strain, 
 To welcome in thy peaceful reign. 
 
 Hosannas now shall sound 
 From all the ransomed throng, 
 And glory echo round 
 A new triumphal song; 
 The wide expanse of heaven fill 
 With anthems sweet from Zion's hill. 
 
 Hail! Prince of life and peace! 
 Thrice welcome to thy throne! 
 While all the chosen race 
 Their Lord and Savior own. 
 The heathen nations bow the knee, 
 And ev'ry tongue sounds praise to thee.
