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 ev’ry nation
Joy of ev’ry longing heart
Chorus
Come, oh come
Jesus, meet us here
Come, oh come
Draw Your people near
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
Chorus x 2
Charles Wesley
Chorus: Amy Branson Fata © 2020 Portion Music (ASCAP)
For to us a child is born,
to us a son is given;
and the government shall be upon his shoulder,
and his name shall be called
Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God,
Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.
Isaiah 9:6
