————————— Verse 1: ———————————————————————————————————————————————————

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



————————— Verse 2: ———————————————————————————————————————————————————

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
