Tune: Cross of Jesus
(\'Come, thou long expected Jesus\')
Matthew 1 v.20-23
*********
An angel to Jospeh appeared
Unto him he drew and neared
Said, Joseph, you son of David
Fear not, but by me be led
Fear not, take as your wife Mary
For the child to be born, see
Of her He be of the Spirit
Conceived, thus your way is lit
And she shall bring forth a son, shall
The name JESUS sure Him call
For He shall save from their sins His
People, prophecy says this
Prophet Isaiah* said, Behold
A virgin with child, \'tis told
She shall bring forth a son, and call
Him God with us, Emmanuel
