[Verse 1]
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
[Verse 2]
Jesus! What a Friend for sinners!
Jesus! Lover of my soul;
Friends may fail me, foes assail me;
He, my Savior, makes me whole
Hallelujah! What a Savior!
Hallelujah! What a Friend!
Saving, helping, keeping, loving
He is with me to the end
[Verse 3]
Jesus! What a Help in sorrow!
While the billows o'er me roll
Even when my heart is breaking
He, my Comfort, helps my soul
Hallelujah! What a Savior!
Hallelujah! What a Friend!
Saving, helping, keeping, loving;
He is with me to the end
[Verse 4]
Jesus! I do now adore Him
More than all in Him I find;
He has granted me forgiveness;
I am His, and He is mine!
Hallelujah! What a Savior!
Hallelujah! What a Friend!
Saving, helping, keeping, loving;
He is with me to the end
[Outro]
Hallelujah! What a Savior!
Hallelujah! What a Friend!
Saving, helping, keeping, loving;
He is with me to the end
