ON THE MORROW

 On the morrow come I into the world....

To give peace to the suffering
To give hope to the down-trodden
To strenghten the weak
To lighten your burdens

To lift the downtrodden

To give sight to the blind

To give power to the faint

To give might to the weary
To comfort those who mourn

To bind up the broken-hearted

To show mercy to the penitent
To give you living water

To free the captive

To be a refuge from the storm

And a shadow from the heat

To give you rest from sorrow and fear

To break the bands of bondage
To lift up the hands which hang down
To strengthen the feeble knees

To empower the powerless

To conquer the sting of death
To be a light unto the world
To love you 
To help you
To save you.
