All Things New, like yesterday’s song, is from a just released live recording from Hymn Collective entitled The Advent Hymn Sing: Hymns for Red Mountain Church, Vol. 2
The lyrics:
1
Come Lord, and tarry not;
Bring the long-looked-for day;
O why these years of waiting here,
These ages of delay?
2
Come, for Thy saints still wait;
Daily ascends their sigh:
The Spirit and the Bride say, “Come”:
Dost Thou not hear the cry?
3
Come, for creation groans,
Impatient of Thy stay,
Worn out with these long years of ill,
These ages of delay.
4
Come, and make all things new;
Build up this ruined earth;
Restore our faded Paradise,
Creation’s second birth.
5
Come, and bring Thy reign
Of everlasting peace;
Come, take the kingdom to Thyself,
Great King of Righteousness.
Lyrics: Horatius Bonar.
