Author: C. Wesley Hymnal: The Church Hymnal #47 (1920) Lyrics: 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.
2 Israel's strength and consolation,
Hope of all the earth Thou art;
Dear desire of every nation,
Joy of every longing heart.
3 Born Thy people to deliver,
Born a child, and yet a King,
Born to reign in us for ever,
Now Thy gracious kingdom bring.
4 By Thine own eternal Spirit,
Rule in all our heart alone:
By Thine all-sufficient merit,
Raise us to Thy glorious throne. Topics: The Christian Year Advent Languages: English Tune Title: STUTTGART
Come, Thou long-expected Jesus
