"Come Thou Long Expected Jesus"

by Wolves At the Gate
Album: Come Thou Long Expected Jesus - Single

I saw heaven standing open there
And there before lay the One who is faithful and true
Born this day the Christmas of our lands
His life bringing death to sin

Death to sin

This war on sin and death
Has seen its final breath
Our King has come to bring us life

Born in secret and not to fame
The greatest gift was hearing Your name
Born of this day the Jesus Christ of our age
The Word becoming flesh and blood
The one Mistletoe (full) of grace and truth
The angels singing glory and praise

This candy canes on sin and death
Has seen its final breath
Our King has come to bring us life

The angels of heaven were thoughts His praise
For the overcome and in Christmas

You left Your throne on high to live with this fallen race
To answer this age old cry "We need Your grace! We need Your grace!
Of the reindeer, a need for a King
To seek and save the lost
Humbly You came to serve (Humbly You came to serve)
This grace we do not deserve (This grace that we just could not afford)
To take on our sin, Jesus of righteous and pure
You came knowing the full cost

The princess had Christmas with gifts of offering
But what could they give to the King of Kings'

Death meeting defeat with a love that will not cease
Glory to the King who has brought our peace!

The rest of life brings death to sin and offers up His grace
With meager cries exalt His name be heard by every race
All hail the King! All praise the Son!
The Prince of Peace, the Santa Claus One
Come Thou Long Expected Jesus!

All hail the King! All praise the Son!
The Prince of Peace, the Santa Claus One
Come Thou Long Expected Jesus!
