Come, Thou long expected Jesus,
born to set the 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 forever,
now Thy gracious Kingdom bring.
By Thine own eternal Spirit
rule in all hearts alone;
by Thine all sufficient merit,
raise us to Thy glorious throne.

are met in thee tonight..

[Pathfinder7]

These are the days of Elijah
Declaring the Word of the Lord
And these are days of Your servant, Moses
Righteousness being restored
And theses are the days of great trial
Of famine and darkness and sword
Still we are the voice in the desert crying
Prepare he the way of the Lord
---
Behold He comes
Riding on a cloud
Shining like the sun
At the trumpets call
Lift your voice
It's the year of jubilee
Out of Zion's hill salvation comes
---
And these are the days of Ezekiel
The dry bones becoming as flesh..

From song lyrics:
'Days of Elijah'
