Here are some closing responses suitable for use in Advent worship.  They come from the Church of England website.

Advent Dismissal

With love and compassion,
come, Lord Jesus.

With judgement and mercy,
come, Lord Jesus.

In power and glory,
come, Lord Jesus.

In wisdom and truth,
come, Lord Jesus.
