Full Lyrics
VERSE 1
O Thou my hope and expectation,
Lord Jesus come I wait for Thee.
My heart unfolds in adoration,
for e'er with Thee I long to be.
I want to dwell on earth no longer,
fulfil Thy holy word on me.
In me the urge grows ever stronger
to meet Thee Savior, worthily.
VERSE 2
O Jesus satisfy my yearning
With Thine elect this earth to leave.
My heart and soul for Thee are burning
today yet Would I Thee receive.
My thoughts and ev'ry aspiration
they all are centered Lord on Thee.
O come, effect the Bride's translation;
I wait thy countenance to see.
