Joyful Journeyings - Isaiah Series (25)

Tune: St Stephen

(\'In Christ there is no east or west\')

Isaiah 61 v.10-11

*********

I will great in the LORD rejoice

Unto Him my praise voice

In my God my soul be joyful

For He has clothed me all

 

Clothed with garments of salvation

They beauteous for each one

He has covered me with the robe

Of righteousness\' encove* (*covenant)

 

\'Tis a bridegroom himself decks

With ornaments, effects

And as a bride herself adorns

With jewels, not now mourns

 

For as earth does her bud forth bring

And garden everything

Sown in it does sure so forth spring

So lost shall be nothing

 

For so the Lord GOD He will cause

Righteousness, peace, assures

That they will spring forth before all

The nations shall not fall
