    Lyrics:
    VERSE1
    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
    VERSE2
    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
    BRIDGE
    You draw the hearts of shepherds
    You draw the hearts of kings
    Even as a baby
    You were changing everything
    You called me to Your Kingdom
    Before Your lips could speak
    And even as a baby
    You were reaching out for me
    And now we are awaiting
    The day of Your return
    When every eye will see You
    As heaven comes to earth
    Until the sky is opened
    Until the trumpet sounds
    The bride is getting ready
    The church is singing out
    ENDING
    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
    Come Thou long expected King

    This song broke me into tears. Realizing that Jesus had been reaching for us even as a baby. Just how undeserving we are ,yet how much he wants us. Just in awe of Jesus and how much he loves us!!!

    My hope is built on nothing less than Jesus Christ himself. Oh, when I stand before his throne, who will I be? What will he see? Will I fall to my knees? Will I gaze into his glorious face? Come, Lord Jesus, come.

    Here in the Philippines, Christmas UNOFFICIALLY starts at Sept 01 and as far as I am concerned, this is my favorite Christian Christmas song. I love Meredith's ministry and sincerity to exalt the Lord Jesus, and this is such a loving duet between her and Jason. The soaring final chorus is primarily the reason why i keep coming back to this song. Glory to God!!!

    I'm still not sure how I feel about the first half of the bridge. But boy, the second half of the bridge and the last verse pull it all together!

    • @Spank98asu
      @Spank98asu 6 лет назад

      Just curious, what concerns do you have about first half of the bridge?

    • @katherinec2759
      @katherinec2759 6 лет назад +2

      Not concerns, really. It just doesn't go as deep as the verses do, so it seemed like a kind of lame insertion. But as I said, the second half of the bridge brings it home, so I don't mind the first half too much. I just still feel like it's a little simple to fit well. But it works.

    • @ndnapollo
      @ndnapollo 5 лет назад +2

      @@katherinec2759 I think it's because the second half of the bridge clearly has a lot of Biblical references which the lyrics are pulling from, while the first half feels like fluff in comparison. And the dude's voice coming in to harmonize the second half does add that extra touch of "yesssssssss!"

    meaning of even as a baby reaching out to me?? The first line in bridge assumes Jesus' presence is what changed everything. So I tried to think about the second set of lines the same way.. Jesus wasn't as a baby reaching out his arms saying "come to me Em!" But rather, his presence as God incarnate calls me to his kingdom? Just feels weird and doesn't seem theologically right? I love the rest of this song. That line just really distracts me every time I hear it..

    • @Thewholebeing23
      @Thewholebeing23 2 месяца назад

      Wasn’t his Kingdom the whole purpose all along, Bring heaven to earth? Set us free from the darkness and sin? He spoke about it in scripture. In my Fathers house there are many rooms.
