The One Whom the Father Sends
Words and music: Jonathan Bowles
All of the earth rejoice!
For our Lord will give you rest.
Far from the north he will come
and shine from east to west.
Then shall the righteous rise,
and the clouds will roll and flee
To the Mount they will come
and ev'ry eye will see
That his
refrain:
Kingdom shall contain,
none that will offend
for our Lord Mesiah Reigns;
The one Whom the Father sends!
Birds on the wind come ride;
let your cries around you ring
Down to the valley wide,
to find the vanquished king;
There did his armies fall,
and his mighty warriors cease
There the world bowed dow
to bring God's earth its peace.
And His
refrain
Then shall His people come
to their land of Israel;
Back from the natoins price,
and back from where they fell
In to His cov'nant law,
and his Word which makes them free
Drawn by Christ the Door
thru which they'll come to see
That His
refrain
Nations will then come near
and seek the light alone
Drawn by the waters clear
that flow beneath his throne
See what His Word has done
in a land of peace and calm
So His rule will spread
thru ev'ry home and farm
And His
refrain
