Comfort in Isaiah (10): Lord of life

orchidee



Tune: Little Cornard

('Hills of the north, rejoice')

Isaiah 45 v.22-25

********

Look to me, and be saved

My Son the way has paved

Look, all ends of the earth

In Him find your true worth

For I am God, there none else be

Who can be compared unto me?

 

I have by myself sworn

True through each time, each morn

From my mouth has the word

Gone ,all the world has heard

Righteousness I speak, and it shall

Not return to me, but do well

 

This be the word I say

Sure as night follows day

That to me every knee

Bowed unto me shall be

And every tongue confess my name

Their worship unto me shall frame

 

Surely they shall then say

We trust the LORD alway

In Him have righteousness

And strength, He shall us bless

Unto the LORD shall come all men

He be proclaimed as Sovereign then

 

All they that are incensed

Against the LORD, intensed

They shall be there ashamed

None of the righteous blamed

In the LORD shall all Israel's seed (descendants)

Be justified, glory indeed
