The Hymn from the Sunday Service.
JOHN THE BAPTIST
(Tune 10.10.10.10 with Refrain)
(“Be Still My Soul: The Lord is on your side”)
When John the Baptist preached for all to hear,
He said, "Repent! The kingdom has come near!"
His rough, prophetic manner caused surprise,
But people heard his words and were baptized.
Prepare the Lord's own way! Make his paths straight!
It's time to change! We can no longer wait!
Among the crowds that day were mighty men
Who proudly traced their line to Abraham.
But John proclaimed that they should change their ways --
For trees that don't bear fruit are set ablaze.
Prepare the Lord's own way! Make his paths straight!
It's time to change! We can no longer wait!
O God, we harm creation by our greed;
We overlook our neighbours in their need.
We let our lives be ruled by hate and fear;
Your call to change is one we need to hear:
Prepare the Lord's own way! Make his paths straight!
It's time to change! We can no longer wait!
And Lord, you call for change in your church, too,
For even here we've wandered far from you.
Renew in us a vision of your Way,
And give us strength and courage to obey.
Prepare the Lord's own way! Make his paths straight!
It's time to change! We can no longer wait!
