Full Lyrics
CHORUS
Come Lord Jesus the light is dying,
the night keeps crying; come, Lord Jesus.
VERSE 1
Christ, come quickly, there's danger at the door,
poverty aplenty hearts gone wild with war,
there's hunger in the city and famine on the plain.
VERSE 2
Want demands a hearing in far too many lands,
the sick go unattended, death deals a heavy hand,
the dreams of men are empty, their cup of sorrow full.
VERSE 3
The world awaits in darkness, a mighty burst of light,
To set the lame man leaping, to give the blind man sight,
We have the prophets' promise, we await the Prince of peace.
