“Saviour, Haste.”

Millennial Harp (1843), Supplement («SUPPLEMENT TO THE HARP.»), printed pp. 32–33 (PDF 324–325). No author,
composer, tempo or expression is printed. Three staves (treble, second treble with the tune, bass); D major, 2/4.
Stanza 1 is printed between the staves, under the middle staff; stanzas 2–4 are printed as verse on p. 33.
The metre (not printed) is 8.7.8.7.4.7; the music sings the 5th line twice («All the sorrow, All the sorrow,»),
which is how stanza 1 is printed under the music (once at the foot of p. 32, again at the top of p. 33).

Saviour, haste ! our souls are waiting,
For the long expected day,
When, new heavens and earth creating,
Thou shalt banish grief away ;
All the sorrow,
All the sorrow,
Caused by sin and Satan's sway.

Haste, O hasten thine appearing,
Take thy mourning people home:
'Tis this hope our spirits cheering,
While we in the desert roam,
Makes thy people
Strangers here, till thou dost come.

Lord, how long shall the creation
Groan and travail sore in pain;
Waiting for its sure salvation,
When thou shalt in glory reign,
And like Eden,
This sad earth shall bloom again.

Reign, O reign Almighty Saviour!
Heaven and earth in one unite;
Make it known, that in thy favor,
There alone is life and light;
When we see thee,
We shall have unmixed delight.
