Tune: Lyngham
(one tune to 'O for a thousand tongues to sing')
Isaiah 25 v.6-9 parts
*************
In mount Zion the LORD shall make
A feast, and none shall take
A feast, and none shall take
It from His people, it fine fare
Rejoicing, plenty there
Rejoicing, plenty there
Rejoicing, plenty there
He will destroy on that mountain
Death, and bring life's fountain
Death, and bring life's fountain
Will destroy face of covering
Death's pall spread o'er each thing
Death's pall spread o'er each thing
Death's pall spread o'er each thing
It be a veil spread o'er nations
Of peoples, all stations
Of peoples, all stations
He swallows up death in victory
So shall His triumph be
So shall His triumph be
So shall His triumph be
And the LORD God will wipe away
Tears from each face that day
Tears from each face that day
Will take away from His people
Rebukes, accusings all
Rebukes, accusings all
Rebukes, accusings all
Then the people shall in that day
This is our Lord God, say
This is our Lord God, say
We have waited for Him, and He
Will save us, joyful we
Will save us, joyful we
Will save us, joyful we

when you say spiritual, you aint been on the pop again have you ..
I am all at sea .. can you explain how one might destroy death ...
Thanks Neville. The 'answer' is as in the poem, I take it.
I'm with you - abolish death and not forgetting time's ravishes - abolish wrinkles.
Thanks M.
