Prepare The Way For The King

Single

Lyrics

Old Zechariah opened his mouth
Spirit filled, and he cried out loud
Blessed be the Lord, the God of Israel
He came to His people, broke the chains and the proud
He raised a horn of salvation
From David's holy line
Just like He promised our fathers
Mercy from ancient time

O the dawn from on high is breaking
Shining on those in the shadow of death
Peace is the gift He's making
Guiding our feet on the righteous path

Swore an oath to Abraham
To rescue us from the enemy's hand
Free to serve Him without fear
Holy and righteous in His promised land
Child, you'll be a prophet
Prepare the way for the King
Forgiveness of sins and salvation
Through the mercy He's bringing

O the dawn from on high is breaking
Shining on those in the shadow of death
Peace is the gift He's making
Guiding our feet on the righteous path

Tender mercies rolling down
Like a river through this desert town
Darkness trembling, night's undone
Morning's here, the Light has come

O the dawn from on high is breaking
Shining on those in the shadow of death
Peace is the gift He's making
Guiding our feet on the righteous path

O the dawn from on high is breaking
Shining on those in the shadow of death
Peace is the gift He's making
Guiding our feet on the righteous path
