(\'Now is eternal life\')
Isaiah 44 v.1 -6
*******
Hear now you, my people
I formed you, you I call
You be my chosen ones
My daughters and my sons
Fear not, for I will help you sure
You shall be mine for evermore
Water I will outpour
Each land, from shore to shore
To quench you that do thirst
Floods on dry ground outburst
Yes, on your seed too, and on you
I pour out my spirit anew
And I shall bless your kin
Blessings shall be therein
They shall as grass spring up
Shall feed with me and sup
As willows by the water course
They shall grow, this I do endorse
One shall say, I the LORD\'s
Am, true as be His words
They shall be Israel
Restored by Him, shall tell
That He is their redeemer strong
he the first and last all along
