How long sweet Lord
wilt thou be chiding
how long thy Face
thy Glory hiding?
O rend the Veil
& come away Lord
Love grow inflam'd
and cannot Stay Lord.
We long to see
& Jubilate with thee
O rend the Veil and come
come come away Lord.
2. THy Spouse Wounds
Bleed without Curing:
Her Patient Soul
Long, long enduring:
Still Crown'd with Thorns,
In Shame and Scorning;
Stil Sla'n with thee
Till thy Returning.
Lift up thy Horn,
Thou mighty Unicorn.
[1] Push down thy Foes and Spring
The Glorious Morning.
3. Let Heavenly Peace,
Long Life and Pleasures;
Let Crowns adorn'd
With Wisdoms Treasures,
The Portion be
Of thine Elected;
Now Honour'd more
Than once Neglected.
Now let 'em Rise
And enter Paradise,
By thy Great Michael's
Flaming Sword Protected.
4. O how the Place
Of thy Abiding;
And where thy
Mighty Power is Hiding.
O rend the Veil
And come away Lord;
Love grows Inflam'd
And cannot stay Lord.
Come set us free
To Jubilate with thee.
O rend the Veil, and come,
Come, come away Lord
