Tune: St Magnus
('The head that once was crowned with thorns')
Isaiah 43 v.18-21 & v.25
********
Remember not the former things
The Lord He new things brings
Consider not the things of old
Now be things new and bold
The Lord He shall a new thing do
It shall spring forth to you
He makes a way in wilderness
Rivers in desert [does] bless
For there a way in barren land
Where contained rock and sand
And rivers they shall quench your thirst
Fresh springs shall now outburst
The Lord gives drink to His chosen
His people here, each one
Water of life in refreshing
Each one does to Him sing
This people for Himself he formed
He loved them, to them warmed
They shall show forth His praise always
Worship Him all their days
He the Lord does for His own sake
Blot out our sins, does make
Us His people, forgives, our lot
Sins He remembers not

Comfort my commune any day - great work Orchi
Thanks M. Lie the picture/painting in the clip? I think it's good - does not over-portray Christ or make Him garish, etc. You seen my halo in any of my pics, or has it fell off?!
Just look down - looks like it's got wedged around your waist.
This is a very good one Orchi, may our sins be forgiven.
Thanks Gold. Some lovely passages and verses in the second half of Isaiah - from chapter 40 onwards.
