1. Come, Thou longexpected 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.

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; 

giving what we can not merit,

raise us to Thy glorious throne.
