“Come,

Come,
now, our Advent King,
Help us Thy name to sing;
Help us to praise;
In us Your way prepare.
That You may enter there.
Make in our hearts today
A home for You.
Come,
O Emmanuel,
May all Your praises tell
Through all the world.
Come, Lord, deliver us,
From sin release us.
Comfort and reign o’er us.
Emmanuel.
Come,
Jesus, King of Kings,
May we this Advent sing
With heart and soul.
Grace, love and mercy bring
That we in everything
May praise you, Christ and King,
Our coming Lord.
