Praise the One Who Breaks the Darkness

Author: Rusty Edwards, 1955- Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 19 hymnals Scripture: Isaiah 61:1-2 Lyrics: 1 Praise the One who breaks the darkness with a liberating light. Praise the One who frees the prisoners, turning blindness into sight. Praise the One who preached the gospel, healing every dread disease, calming storms and feeding thousands with the very bread of peace. 2 Praise the One who blessed the children with a strong yet gentle word. Praise the One who drove out demons with a piercing two edged sword. Praise the one who brings cool water to the desert's burning sand. From this well comes living water quenching thirst in every land. 3 Praise the one true love incarnate: Christ who suffered in our place. Jesus died and rose for many that we may know God by grace. Let us sing for joy and gladness, seeing what our God has done. Praise the one redeeming glory; praise the One who makes us one. Used With Tune: NETTLETON

The wide expanse of heaven fill, The wide expanse of heaven fill With anthems sweet from Zion's hill. 4 Hail! Prince of life and peace! Thrice welcome to thy throne!
