Текст оригинала на английском языке * * * 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 for ever, 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. Amen. |
