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 saints Thou art;
Dear desire of every nation,
Joy of every longing heart.

CHORUS:
Come Thou long-awaited Emmanuel.

Born Thy people to deliver,
Born a child and yet a King,
Born to reign in us forever,
Now Thy gracious kingdom bring.
(Repeat Chorus)

A thrill of hope,
A thrill of hope

A thrill of hope, the weary world rejoices,
For yonder breaks a new and glorious morn,
Fall on your knees,
O hear the angel voices,
O night divine,
O night, when Christ was born

A thrill of hope,
A thrill of hope
