Author: Charles Wesley Hymnal: Book of Worship with Hymns and Tunes #404 (1899) Hymnal Title: Book of Worship with Hymns and Tunes 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 forever,
Now Thy gracious kingdom bring.
4 By Thine own eternal Spirit,
Rule in all our hearts alone;
By thine all-sufficient merit,
Raise us to Thy glorious throne.
Amen. Topics: Christ Desire of the Nations; Christ Kingdom of; Christ Ministry of; Supplication Languages: English Tune Title: STUTTGART
