Lord, Your return

Lord, Your return…
How long must it be, dear Lord?
The ages have come,
The centuries have gone,
The years have passed us by.

A generation…
Lord, of them that seek Your face;
A remnant for You
Whose hearts are so true.
They’re those who just love You.

A generation…
With a goal to bring You back.
Their treasure is You,
You’re their future too.
They care for only You.

A generation…
Lord, by You they are possessed.
You have captured their heart,
The world has no part,
Their joy is only You.

Oh, generation…
The Spirit and Bride say come —
The Spirit’s calling you.
The Bride is calling too!
Take heed to this mingled cry!

Oh come, Lord Jesus…
For this cause, Lord, strengthen us.
Keep us faithful to stand
All the way to the end.
Uphold us in Your hands.
