1. Christ whose glo-ry fills the skies
              Em    D        C
   Christ the ev-er-last-ing light
              G          C/G    G
   The Son of Right-eous-ness a-rise
                G/D        D         G    
   And tri-umph o'er these shades of night
   
            G           C/G     G
2. And come Thou long a-wai-ted one
          Em        D       C
   In the full-ness of your love
             G                C/G   G
   And loose this heart bound up by shame
              G/D    D      G
   And I will ne-ver be the same
   
              D               Em
CH: So here I wait in hope of You
                  C                    G 
    All my soul's long-ing through and through
                   C               G/B
    And Day-spring from on high be near
                 Am7   D        G
    And Day star in my heart ap-pear

            G          C/G    G
3. Dark and cheer-less is the morn
               Em      D     C
   Un-til your love in me is born
                G      C/G      G 
   And joy-less is the eve-ning song
             G/D   D      G
   Un-til Em-man-u-el has come   
   
              D               Em
CH: So here I wait in hope of You
                  C                    G 
    All my soul's long-ing through and through
                   C               G/B
    And Day-spring from on high be near
                 Am7   D        G
    And Day star in my heart ap-pear    

              D               Em
CH: So here I wait in hope of You
                  C                    G 
    All my soul's long-ing through and through
                   C               G/B
    And Day-spring from on high be near
