Come, Lord Jesus!

I, John, hear a voice saying to me:
   “Behold, I am coming soon.
I bring with me the recompense I will give to each
   according to his deeds.
I am the Alpha and the Omega, the first and the last,
   the beginning and the end.”

Blessed are they who wash their robes
   so as to have the right to the tree of life
   and enter the city through its gates.

“I, Jesus, sent my angel to give you this testimony for the churches.
I am the root and offspring of David,
   the bright morning star.”

The Spirit and the bride say, “Come.”
Let the hearer say, “Come.”
Let the one who thirsts come forward,
   and the one who wants it receive the gift of life-giving water.

The one who gives this testimony says, “Yes, I am coming soon.”
Amen! Come, Lord Jesus!

~Revelation 22:12-14, 16-17, 20
