His Mercy Is More
Matt Boswell
4:50Long in darkness Israel wandered; Long in mortal shadows, we Walked in bondage and self-pity, Trod in paths of sin and grief. In the prophets' words He told us, Long the God of Israel spoke; He alone in strength would save us From the hands of all our foes. Every valley be exalted! Every mountain be made plane! Crooked ways repent and straighten; cll creation bend in praise! He shall raise a mighty Savior; Born of David's lineage, He Comes in cov'nant love to claim us From our sins to set us free. Light to those who dwell in darkness Life to those from death who flee Joy unto the earth, and gladness, To your pathways dawning peace! Every valley be exalted! Every mountain be made plane! Crooked ways repent and straighten; cll creation bend in praise! Jesus, Lord, and mighty Savior, David's Son and yet his King, Dawning light of our salvation, Of your saving pow'r we sing! Stand, Oh lame, and dance ye broken, Know the Savior's healing grace; Come, Oh deaf and hear him singing; Turn, Oh blind, behold his face!
