O quickly come, dread judge of all! For awful though thine advent be, all shadows from the truth will fall and falsehood die in sight of thee. O quickly come, for doubt and fear like clouds dissolve when thou art near. O quickly come, great King of all! Reign all around us and within; let sin no more our souls enthral, let pain and sorrow die with sin. O quickly come, for thou alone canst make thy scattered people one. O quickly come, true Life of all! For death is mighty all around; on every home his shadows fall, on every heart his mark is found. O quickly come, for grief and pain can never cloud thy glorious reign. O quickly come, sure Light of all! And drive the gloomy night away! Lest haply weakly souls should fall with weary watching for the day. O quickly come, for round thy throne no eye is blind, no night is known. O blessed Saviour, Love of Love! O Father, fount of life and light! O Holy Spirit, heavenly dove! To thee be glory, praise and might. God of our fathers, one in three, with angel hosts we worship thee. (Laurence Tuttiett)
