104:Come, thou long-expected Jesus

Tunes: Sweet chiming bells, 350
Hyfrydol, 370
Meter: 8.7.8.7.D. Trochaic

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 All thy people?s 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.

Chorus
Sweet chiming bells, O how they ring
To welcome Christ, the newborn King;
Sweet chiming bells, O how they ring
To welcome Christ, the King.

Charles
