There's a Voice in the Wilderness Lyrics

There's a voice in the wilderness crying

A call from the ways untrod

Prepare in the desert a highway

A highway for our God

The valleys shall be exalted

The lofty hills brought low

Make straight all the crooked places

Where God, our God, may go

O Jerusalem, herald good tidings

Ascend to the heights and sing

Proclaim to a desolate people

The coming of their king

Like flowers of the field we perish

Like grass our works decay

The power and the pomp of nations

Shall pass like a dream away

But the word of our Savior is faithful

The arm of our God is strong

Who stands in the midst of the nations

And soon will right the wrong

Lord, feed your flock like a shepherd

The lambs so gently hold

In pastures of peace now lead them

And bring them to your fold
