Come Thou Long Expected Jesus
1 Come, O long-expected Jesus, born to set your people free! from our fears and sins release us, Christ in whom our rest shall be. 2 Israel's strength and consolation, born salvation to impart; dear desire of every nation, joy of every longing heart. 3 Born your people to deliver, born a child, and yet a king; born to reign in us for ever, now your gracious kingdom bring: 4 By your own eternal Spirit rule in our hearts alone; by your all-sufficient merit raise us to your glorious throne.

Thy Hand, O God Has Guided
Thy hand, O God, has guided Thy flock, from age to age; The wondrous tale is written, Full clear, on every page; Our fathers owned thy goodness, And we their deeds record; And both of this bear witness: One Church, one faith, one Lord. Thy heralds brought glad tidings To greatest, as to least; They bade men rise, and hasten To share the great King's feast; And this was all their teaching, In every deed and word, To all alike proclaiming One Church, one faith, one Lord Thy mercy will not fail us, Nor leave thy work undone; With thy right hand to help us, The victory shall be won; And then, by men and angels, Thy name shall be adored, And this shall be their anthem: One Church, one faith, one Lord. |
