We put "Come Thou Long Expected Jesus" on our YouTube channel a couple years ago as part of a medley with "O Come O Come Emmanuel," and then redid it to a complete version for our album. Katie wrote the words to the last verse and what a great message it has:

"Hallelujah, God is with us. Grace and truth and life He brings. Light of the world, our promised Messiah. Jesus Christ, the newborn King."

►LYRICS - Come Thou Long Expected Jesus
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 earth Thou art
Dear desire of every nation
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

O come, let us adore him [x3]

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

Alleluia, God is with us
Grace and truth and life He brings
Light of the world, our promised Messiah
Jesus Christ, the newborn King
