Full Lyrics

1. Come, Thou long ex- pect- ed Je- sus Born to set Thy peo- ple free; From our fears and sins re- lease us, Let us find our rest in Thee. Is- rael's Strength and Con- sol- a- tion, Hope of all the earth Thou art; Dear De- sire of ev- ery na- tion, Joy of ev- ery long- ing heart.

2. Born Thy peo- ple to de li- ver, Born a child and yet a King, Born to reign in us for- ev- er, Now Thy grac- ious king- dom bring. By Thine own e- ter- nal Spi- rit Rule in all our hearts a- lone; By Thine all suf- fi- cient mer- it, Raise us to Thy glor- ious throne.
