Zacharias, his prophecy
At birth of his son be
He John the Baptist, the prophet
Of the Highest, task fit
Of the Highest, task fit
Of the, of the Highest, task fit
For he shall go before the face
Of the Lord, even pace
To prepare His way, salvation\'s
Knowledge give all nations
Knowledge give all nations
Knowledge, knowledge give all nations
To show to people how they may
Know unto God the way
\'Tis by knowing salvation through
Jesu\'s works make us new
Jesu\'s works make us new
Jesu\'s, Jesu\'s works make us new
Forgiveness of sins, through mercy
Tender of God it be
Whereby the Dayspring from on high
The Dawn, Messiah nigh
The Dawn, Messiah nigh
The Dawn, The Dawn, Messiah nigh
To give light to them sat in dark
And shadow of death, hark
He shall guide our feet, [in] path of peace
He Lord, His reign ne\'er cease
He Lord, His reign ne\'er cease
He Lord, He Lord, His reign ne\'er cease
