Het artikel van zangeres Caroline Cobb "2020 Has Felt Like Advent All Year" bracht me bij deze song van haar, passend voor nu.
Comfort, Oh Comfort
From Isaiah 35; 43:18-21; 51:3, 11; 53:3; 58:11CCLI # 7159408
Verse 1:
Comfort, oh comfort
To every place that is scorched and dry
Comfort, speak comfort
To every darkness in need of the light
Chorus:
In the wilderness, the green of Eden
In the wasteland, the garden blooms
Up from the desert, springs a river
For He is making everything new
Oh oh
Verse 2:
Comfort, oh comfort
There is a highway through this dry land
They will call him a Man of Sorrows
And like a seed, buried deep to rise again
Chorus
Verse 3:
Comfort, oh comfort
For the ransomed will return with a song
And with joy, we’ll come into Zion
And all our sorrow, all our sighing will be gone
Chorus
