Advent 2015

Longing in desperation for Hope
Hungering for a savior
To come
Restoring the damaged and broken hearted
Freeing from captivity those in prison

Those in darkness have seen a great light
The blind can see
The captives throw off their chains
The downcast souls rejoice

How long?
How long O Lord must we wait?
Wait in agony?
You delay for those yet to come
The lost who haven't been found
Blind ones who cannot see
Your love drives your timing

Come thou fount of every blessing
Bring Joy to the world
On the silent night
When darkness was at its darkest
A light shining bright
Has come
