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.


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.
