1 The voice of Him that crieth in the wilderness,
Prepare ye the way of the Lord;
Behold, the Lord is coming in His righteousness,
Prepare ye the way of the Lord.

Refrain:
Prepare ye the way, prepare ye the way,
Prepare ye the way of the Lord;
Behold, the Lord is coming in His righteousness,
Prepare ye the way of the Lord.

2 Make straight the highway in the desert for our God,
Prepare ye the way of the Lord;
Behold, the garments of His Son are dipped in blood,
Prepare ye the way of the Lord. [Refrain]

3 He’s coming to His threshing floor with fan in hand,
Prepare ye the way of the Lord;
Behold, He casteth out oppression from the land,
Prepare ye the way of the Lord. [Refrain]

4 My brother, are you ready, is your armor bright?
Prepare ye the way of the Lord;
Behold! He quickly cometh, trim your lamp tonight,
Prepare ye the way of the Lord. [Refrain]
