Comfort, Comfort Ye My People
Author: Johann Olearius; Catherine Winkworth Hymnal: Worship in Song #55 (1996) Meter: 8.7.8.7.7.7.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Comfort, comfort ye my people,
Speak ye peace, thus saith our God;
Comfort those who sit in darkness
Mourning 'neath their sorrows' load.
Speak ye to Jerusalem
Of the peace that waits for them;
Tell her that her sins I cover,
And her warfare now is over.
2 Hark, the voice of one that crieth
In the desert far and near,
Bidding all men to repentance
Since the kingdom now is here.
Oh, that warning cry obey!
Now prepare for God a way;
Let the valleys rise to meet him
And the hills bow down to greet him.
3 Make ye straight what long was crooked,
Make the rougher places plain;
Let your hearts be true and humble,
As befits his holy reign.
For the glory of the Lord
Now over earth is shed abroad;
And all flesh shall see the token
That his word is never broken. Topics: Christmas; Comfort; Darkness; God's glory; Kingdom of God; Mourning; Peace; Prophecy; Repentance; Sin; Sorrow Scripture: Isaiah 40:1-5 Tune Title: GENEVA 42

Speak ye peace, thus saith our God;
Comfort those who sit in darkness,
Wounded sore by sorrows' rod.
Bid Jerusalem be glad,
Her whose heart so long was sad;
Tell her that the strife is ended,
All My peace to her extended.

Blotting out each dark misdeed;
That which well deserved My anger
I no more will see or heed.
She hath suffered bitter grief;
Now I send her sweet relief,
Changing all her gloomy sadness
Into brightest joy and gladness.
