Parts of Isaiah Chapter 40
********
1. Behold the LORD comes with strong hand
To defend His land
His strong hand, His arm o\'er ruling
Over everything
Behold His reward is with Him is
You shall see this
It be bliss
2. And His work before Him it be
He good shepherd, see
He shall with His arm gather then
It shall be so when
And shall carry lambs to Him close
With gentle pose
Each He knows
3. He shall not o\'er stretch or them strain
Nor cause grief or pain
But to each one shall with care tend
Not spoil, break, or rend
All nations before Him as nought
Us He has sought
Us has bought
4. For see nations, as a drop be
In a bucket, see
And they so inconsequential
Compared unto all
That he Lord is, he Almighty
Ever holy
Great and free
5. Yes, the nations small counted are
God greater by far
They the small dust of the balance
Which the scales do sense
To God the isles be as little
Frail and brittle
Vain them all
6. He the Lord, the great Creator
Does His power stir
Never faints, is never weary
Unsearchable be
Limits of His understanding
Yet we Him sing
Worship bring
7. To the faint He does give power
Sustains every hour
To those with no might He gives strength
Empowers at length
Even youths shall be faint, weary
Tired and dreary
Their state be
8. But they that upon the LORD wait
They shall be helped great
Their strength shall renew, they mount shall
On eagles wings well
They shall not be weary, but run
Walk, all be done
Through God\'s Son
