Come! Come! Longed for Messiah
A world in turmoil anxiously awaits
Thy coming.
It’s a dark, dark, world
Enveloped in gloom
Groping in the darkness.
Awaiting thy coming
To dispel the gloom
To scatter the light.
To light up sympathetic understanding
To illuminate the mind.
A world torn by conflict
Awaits in eager expectation
A second coming
To heal the world
To restore anew the message
“Peace on earth and goodwill towards men”
