Song Number:6 Key: D Time: 4/4 BPM:84-100 Sung: Confidently
1.
D G
Re-deem-er of Is-rael,
Em D A7 D
Our on-ly de-light,
D A E7 A
On whom for a bless-ing we call,
D G D
Our shad-ow by day
G A
And our pil-lar by night,
D A7 D
Our King, our De-liv’-rer, our all!
2.
D G
We know he is com-ing
Em D A7 D
To gath-er his sheep
D A E7 A
And lead them to Zi-on in love,
D G D
For why in the val-ley
G A
Of death should they weep
D A7 D
Or in the lone wil-der-ness rove?
3.
D G
How long we have wan-dered
Em D A7 D
As strang-ers in sin
D A E7 A
And cried in the des-ert for thee!
D G D
Our foes have re-joiced
G A
When our sor-rows they’ve seen,
D A7 D
But Is-rael will short-ly be free.
4.
D G
As chil-dren of Zi-on,
Em D A7 D
Good tid-ings for us.
D A E7 A
The to-kens al-read-y ap-pear.
D G D
Fear not, and be just,
G A
For the king-dom is ours.
D A7 D
The hour of re-demp-tion is near.
5.
D G
Re-store, my dear Sa-vior,
Em D A7 D
The light of thy face;
D A E7 A
Thy soul-cheer-ing com-fort im-part;
D G D
And let the sweet long-ing
G A
For thy ho-ly place
D A7 D
Br-ing hope to my des-o-late heart.
6.
D G
He lo-oks! and ten thou-sands
Em D A7 D
Of an-gels re-joice,
D A E7 A
And my-ri-ads wa-it for his word;
D G D
He speaks! and e-ter-ni-ty,
G A
Filled wi-th h-is voice,
D A7 D
Re - ech-oes the praise of the Lord.
