Author: Charles Coffin; John Chandler Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #14185 Meter: 6.6.8.6 First Line: Lift up the Advent strain! Lyrics: 1 Lift up the Advent strain! Behold, the Lord is nigh! Greet His approach, ye saints, again, With hymns of holy joy. 2 The everlasting Son Incarnate deigns to be; Our God the form of slave puts on A race of slaves to free. 3 Daughter of Sion, rise To meet thy lowly king, Nor let the faithless heart despise The peace He comes to bring. 4 As judge in clouds of light, He soon shall come again, And all His scattered saints unite With Him in Heav’n to reign. 5 Before that dreadful day May all our sins be gone; The old man all be put away, The new man all put on. 6 Jesu, all praise to Thee, Our joy and endless rest; We pray Thee here our guide to be, Our crown amid the blest.
