Sweet chiming bells

                  Sweet chiming bells            

                    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
         
          Sweet chiming bells Oh! How they ring
          To welcome Christ, the new born King
          Sweet chiming bells Oh! How they ring
          To welcome Christ, the King
                   2
All Thy people’s consolation
Hope of all the earth Thou art
Dear desire of every nation
Joy of every longing heart
                   3
Born Thy people to deliver
Born a child and yet a King
Born to reign in us for ever
Now the gracious kingdom bring
                   4
By thine own eternal spirit
Rule in all our hearts alone
By thine all sufficient merit
Raise us to Thy glorious throne
