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.
---Alternative verses---
Hail, Thou long-expected Jesus,
Born to set Thy people free;
From our sins and fears release us;
Let us find our rest in Thee.
Israel's strength and consolation,
Hope of all the earth Thou art;
Long desired of every nation,
Joy of every waiting heart.
Born Thy people to deliver,
Born a Child, yet God our King.
Born to reign in us for ever,
Now Thy gracious kingdom bring.
