lyrics

VERSE 1
Your Word has come in very many ways:
Through prophet, sage, and Virgin Mother’s song,
In mountain cold or fiery desert blaze,
By infant voice or mighty angel throng.

VERSE 2
An ass disclosed your will to Balaam’s eye,
A desert bush drew Moses to your place,
Old Anna said the promised time was nigh,
And John saw through the clouds of time and space.

CHORUS 1
May Word and Sacrament your presence show
A glimpse of loving-kindness through the veil,
Or point the way of truth that we may know,
And knowing you not shun the fearsome trail.

VERSE 3
Let none pass by and scorn your bleeding word.
For, nailed to cross or humbly spoken out,
Or wrapped in shroud and in a tomb interred,
The Word is God in whisper or in shout.

CHORUS 2
Let sages’ word and holy prophets’ call
Your Church uphold, your people keep in peace.
Let Gospel hope and worldly kingdoms’ fall
Our faith confirm and loving trust increase.

CHORUS 1
May Word and Sacrament your presence show
A glimpse of loving-kindness through the veil,
Or point the way of truth that we may know,
And knowing you not shun the fearsome trail.
