O COMFORT MY PEOPLE

O comfort my people �and calm all their fear,

And tell them the time of �salvation draws near.

O tell them I come to �remove all their shame.

Then they will, forever, �give praise to my name.

O COMFORT MY PEOPLE

Proclaim to the cities

of Judah my word;

That “gentle yet strong

is the hand of the Lord”.

I rescue the captives,

my people defend,

And bring them to justice and joy without end.

O COMFORT MY PEOPLE

All mountains and hills shall become�as a plain,

For vanished are mourning �and hunger and pain.

And never again shall these war �against you.

Behold I come quickly �to make all things new.
