The time has come,
the appointed time of
redemption, restoration,
restitution: for now the
old has passed away and
today and tomorrow are
loaded up with glowing hope,
that once seemed remote,
a speck in the distance;
but now, O now!, we see it
plain, we see it clear, coming
this way, coming with joy
on her face and a torch
of light in her hand.
