Text Based On Isiah Chapter 9: (KJV)
For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given:
and the government shall be upon his shoulder:
and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor,
The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.

O Prince of Peace
1.
O Prince of Peace, who once didst rise-
in splendid triumph to the skies,
Before the rapt disciples’ eyes,
O come, Lord Jesus, quickly come!
For Thy appearance all things pray;
all nature sighs at Thy delay!
Thy people cry, “No longer stay.”
O come, Lord Jesus, quickly come!
2.
Hear Thou the whole creation’s groan,
the war-swept nations’ plaintive moan,
The lands made deserts all forlorn;
O come, Lord Jesus, quickly come!
See signals of distress unfurled-
by states on stormy billows hurled;
Thou Polestar of a shipwrecked world,
O come, Lord Jesus, quickly come!
3.
By doubts and sorrows inly pressed,
by foes beleaguered and oppressed,
Hear the strong cry of world unrest!
O come, Lord Jesus, quickly come!
Hope of the tried and faithful host,
their only glory, joy, and boast,
Without Thy advent all is lost–
O come, Lord Jesus, quickly come!
4.
Come with Thy beauteous diadem;
come with embattled cherubim,
Come with the shout of seraphim.
O come, Lord Jesus, quickly come!
Come on Thy seat of radiant cloud;
come with the Archangel’s trumpet loud;
Come Saviour, let the heavens be bowed–
O come, Lord Jesus, quickly come!
A blessèd Weekly Seventh Day (Saturday) Sabbath, to all true believers.
In the Son’s Name - For the Father’s glory.
