O that warning cry obey! Now prepare for God a way; Let the valleys rise to meet him And the hills bow down to greet him. 3 O make straight what long was crooked, Make the rougher places plain; Let your hearts be true and humble, As befits his holy reign. For the glory of the Lord Now o'er earth is shed abroad; And all flesh shall see the token That his word is never broken. Scripture: Isaiah 40:1-8 Languages: English Tune Title: GENEVA 42
