Come Thou Long Expected Jesus

F               Bb       C7
Come, Thou long expected Jesus
F               Bb C7  F
Born to set Thy people free;
                   Bb   C7
From our fears and sins release us,
F               Bb   C7 F
Let us find our rest in Thee.
Am       Dm           Gm     C7
Israel’s strength and consolation,
F                          C7
Hope of all the earth Thou art;
F              Bb    C7
Dear desire of every nation,
F            Bb  C7  F
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.
