Come Thou Long Expected Jesus |
| Come Thou Long Expected Jesus |
| 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 |
| Joy to those who long to see thee, Day spring from on high, appear |
| Come, thou promised Rod of Jesse, of thy birth we long to hear |
| Over the hills the angels singing news, glad tidings of a birth |
| Go to him, your praises bringing |
| Christ the Lord has come to earth |
| Come to earth to taste our sadness, he whose glories knew no end |
| By his life he brings us gladness, our Redeemer, Shepherd, Friend |
| Leaving riches without number, born within a cattle stall |
| This the everlasting wonder, Christ was born the Lord of all |
| 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 own sufficient merit, raise us to Thy glorious throne |
