The earth will give birth (A Song of Praise)

The earth will give birth (A Song of Praise)

 

Yes Lord walking in the way of your word

In a righteous, level pathway

Oh upright one, make straight our road

We wait for you and we pray!

 

Your name andÝ renown is the desire of our hearts

Our souls long for you in the night

Like the deer pants for the water

Our spirits long for you in the morning light

 

The earth will give birth to praise

The nations will lift their gaze

To the mighty Lord

You are mighty, Lord

The heavens will all declare

The glory of God everywhere

You are worthy Lord

Worthy to be adored.

 

The light of the righteous rejoices

But the lamp of the wicked goes out

By woe or by weal your glory reveal

And let us respond with a shout!

 

The earth will give birth to praise

The nations will lift their gaze

To the mighty Lord

You are mighty, Lord

The heavens will all declare

The glory of God everywhere

You are worthy Lord

Worthy to be adored.

 

Isaiah 26
