('Hills of the north rejoice')
Isaiah 55 v.6-11
********
Seek the LORD while He may
Be found, salvation's day
Is still upon us here
Call upon Him while near
He be ready to accept each
Who does pray, humbly Him beseech
Let the wicked forsake
Their way, the LORD's way take
Let the unrighteous too
Forsake their thoughts, and do
Return unto the LORD, and He
Will have mercy upon them, see
So to their God return
His will and ways to learn
He will abundantly
Pardon and forgive free
For His thoughts they are not our thoughts
His way not our ways, He has wrought
For as the heavens are
Higher than earth by far
So His ways are higher
Than our ways be, for sure
And His thoughts too they higher be
Than our human thoughts certainly
For as the snow and rain
Fall, they do not again
Return to heaven, they
Water the earth, allay
Its thirst, makes it bud and bring forth
O'er all lands, east, west, south, and north
So it may give seed to
The sower thence anew
And food as we do eat
Of the produce replete
So God's word does not void return
To Him, we prosper, of it learn
