Comfort, Oh Comfort (troost, oh troost)


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; 58:11
CCLI # 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
