Full Lyrics
SA
"Comfort, comfort now my people, speak of peace!" so says our God.
Comfort those who sit in darkness burdened under sorrow's load.
TB
Hear the voice of one who cries out in the desert far and near,
calling all to full repentance for the kingdom now is near.
SATB
Come, make straight what long was crooked, make the rougher places plain!
Let your hearts be true and faithful as befits God's holy reign.
To God's people now proclaim that peace and comfort wait for them!
For the glory of the Lord shall come to reign forevermore.
For unto us a Child is born,
unto us a Son is given,
unto us a Son is given.
And the government shall be upon His shoulder;
and His name shall be called Wonderful, Counselor,
the Mighty God, the Everlasting Father, the Prince of Peace;
the Everlasting Father, the Prince of Peace.
"Comfort, comfort now my people, speak of peace!" so says our God.
