"O Come O Come Emmanuel"

O come, O come, Emmanuel
And ransom captive Israel
That mourns in lonely exile here
Until the Son of God appear

O come thou days bring calm and cheer
Our spirits by thy name appear
Disperse the gloomy clouds of night
And as dark shadows put to flight
Rejoice, rejoice, Emmanuel
Shall come to thee O Israel

O come, desire of nations, bind
All peoples in one heart and mind;
Bid envy, strife and quarrels cease;
Fill the whole world with Heaven’s peace.
Rejoice, rejoice, Emmanuel
Shall come to thee, O Israel
Rejoice, rejoice, Emmanuel
Shall come to thee, O Israel
Shall come to you, O Israel

“Come Thou Long Expected Jesus (Come Thou Fount)”

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 

Come, Thou mighty, humble Savior 
God incarnate as a child 
Laying aside divine behavior 
Frailness taking, meek and mild 
Here we wait in expectation 
Now from Heaven to earth descend 
From Thy sweet celestial station 
Come to be our loving friend 

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

“I Wait”

Oh restless heart, do not grow weary
Hold on to faith and wait
The God of love, He will not tarry
He is never late

So I wait in the promise
I wait in hope
Yes, I wait in the power
Of God’s unending love

So I wait in the promise
I wait in hope
Yes, I wait in the power
Of God’s unending love

Be still and rest secure, my soul
He knows what’s best for me
Here in my patience lies the goal
To wait and trust in Thee

So I wait in the promise
I wait in hope
Yes, I wait in the power
Of God’s unending love

Even through my imperfections
His light is shining through
Though dim I am still a reflection
Of mercy and The truth

So I wait in the promise
I wait in hope
Yes, I wait in the power
Of God’s unending love

So I wait in the promise
Oh, I wait in hope
Yes, I wait in the power
Of God’s unending love
Of God’s unending love
Of God’s unending love
