Praise the One Who Breaks the Darkness
Author: Rusty Edwards (1955-) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 19 hymnals Topics: Praise of God Lyrics: 1 Praise the one who break 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 who makes us one. Scripture: Isaiah 61 Used With Tune: NETTLETON

adore your heavenly King,

some joyful anthem sing;

sing thou the songs of love!

till life shall end,
whate'er God send,
be filled with praise. Scripture: Psalm 103 Used With Tune: DARWALL'S 148TH
