Your God Reigns

How lovely on the mountains are The feet of him who brings good news Who says to Zion, “Your God reigns!” Great joy and peace shall He diffuse O You who bring good tidings, rise! To Zion say, “Your King is near!” Arise, proclaim to Judah’s towns “Behold your God!” and have no fear Prepare the way of Yehovah Make straight a highway for our Lord His strong right hand shall rule for Him Before Him is His just reward And like a shepherd He will feed His sheep, and gather every one He carries them within His arms And gently leads the ones with young O Zion, shout and sing for joy For He returns to save His fold Then David’s booth shall be restored Repaired, as in the days of old For He redeems Jerusalem And Zion’s wastes He shall restore There multitudes shall shout and sing And mourning cease forevermore Awake, O Zion, rise in strength For you shall not be put to shame Your God shall be Your constant light For praise, and beauty, and a name Your King shall take delight in you His precious treasure you shall be For He shall seek you, not forsake Your sons returning you shall see Behold! Salvation comes to you Rejoice, for you shall be restored Then all the farthest lands shall see The great salvation of our Lord ********** Scripture references: Isaiah 40:3+9-11 Isaiah 51:3 Isaiah 52:1+7-9 Isaiah 60:4+19 Isaiah 62:4+11-12 Amos 9:11
