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