  G               C  G
O come divine Mes-si-ah,
    Em       A       Dsus4     D
The world in silence waits the day.
     G                   C    G
When hope shall sing its tri-umph,
G           D7   G
And sadness flee away.

Dear Sav - ior, haste!

Come, come to earth;

Dispel the night and show your face,

Whom priest and prophet long foretold,
     G                  C      G
Will break the captives fet - ters,
G            D7        G

    Em    A         Dsus4  D
For lowly will your cradle be:
       G                C    G
Though clothed in human weak-ness
G               D7       G
  We shall your God head see.
