Lo, The Baptist’s Herald Cry
Shakes The Jordan;
Let The Wakening Eye And Ear
Welcome The Great Harbinger.
Earth, And Sea, And Listening Sky,
Wait Their Maker;
And Throughout The Mighty Womb,
Feel The Jubilee Is Come.
Let Us Cast The Way On High,
For His Coming;
Cleanse The Heart, And Make It Me
For His Heaven-Descended Feet.
Jesu, Strength, And Solace Nigh,
And Salvation!
Without Thee, Like Withering Grass,
Man Doth Into Nothing Pass.
Unto Us, Who Pine And Die,
Stretch Forth Thy Hand;
Earth Shall Break Her Wintry Trance
At Thy Blissful Countenance.
Praise To Him Who Comes From High,
Our Deliverer;
Praise To Father, Spirit, Son,
Never Ending, Never Begun.
