[Verse 1: Wilder Adkins with Heather Hester]
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
Israel's strength and consolation
Hope of all the earth thou art
Dear desire of every nation
Joy of every longing heart
Joy of every longing heart

[Chorus: Wilder Adkins with Heather Hester]
I wait, oh wait
Oh wait, oh wait
I'm waiting for my King to come
I wait, oh wait
Oh wait, oh wait
I'm waiting for my King to come

[Verse 2: Heather Hester]
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 our hearts alone
By thine all sufficient merit
Raise us to thy glorious throne
Raise us to thy glorious throne
[Chorus: Wilder Adkins with Heather Hester]
I wait, oh wait
Oh wait, oh wait
I'm waiting for my King to come
I wait, oh wait
Oh wait, oh wait
I'm waiting for my King to come

[Verse 3: Wilder Adkins & Heather Hester]
The morning stars will sing together
On the day of His holy birth
The sons of God will shout for joy
Oh praise the Lord of all the earth
Someday war will be a memory
Someday we will rise above
The racial strife, the choosing sides
I will abide in my heavenly home

[Chorus: Wilder Adkins with Heather Hester]
I wait, oh wait
Oh wait, oh wait
I'm waiting for my King to come
I wait, oh wait
Oh wait, oh wait
I'm waiting for my King to come
[Chorus: Wilder Adkins with Heather Hester]
I wait, oh wait
Oh wait, oh wait
I'm waiting for my King to come
I wait, oh wait
Oh wait, oh wait
I'm waiting for my King to come
