Jesus our king, when you
come to live in our midst
we shall fear disaster
no more. Those who have
sown in tears will weep
with shouts of joy.
Turn the hearts of
parents to their children; turn the
disobedient to the
wisdom of the righteous,
so that we may prepare
for your coming
and for the revelation
of your word.
