These are the days of wonder and joy

   that I have longed for since I was a boy

Since I was a boy it has been God's plan

   to move me to a distant land

  

         far from the thoughts of man...

My beloved is mine and I am his

and I have kept myself for a time such as this

His coming is near as the dawn to my eyes

this longing of mine is soon satisfied

Come quickly Lord Jesus! Says the Spirit, says the Bride

I'll not arise complete till you draw me to your side

My God in my heart is an all consuming fire

Come quickly my Lord for now I so desire

Come quickly my Lord and heed my heart's choir

Until then My Lord I will prepare for you this goal -

My spirit without spot, no blemish in my soul

my flesh will not my life control

Come quickly my Lord, your return I await my sire

for you are, my Lord, my heart's sole desire

I thirst for you, I long for you

no other love will ever do

Come quickly I am faint with desire,

come quickly.....
