Come, thou long expected Jesus, Born to set thy people free; From our fears and sins release us, Let us find our rest in thee. Israel's strength and consolation, Hope of all the earth thou art; Dear desire of every nation, Joy of every longing heart. Born thy people to deliver, Born a child and yet a King, Born to reign in us forever, Now thy gracious kingdom bring. By thine own eternal spirit Rule in all our hearts alone; By thine all sufficient merit, Raise us to thy glorious throne. Born thy people to deliver Born a child and yet a king. Born to reign forever, now thy gracious Kingdom Bring. Born thy people to deliver, born a child and yet a king Born to reign forever, now thy gracious Kingdom Bring. Come thou long expected Jesus
