STREAMS IN THE DESERT

The Lord promised precious blessings;

Miracles would occur at the Messiah’s coming.

The blind would gratefully receive their sight;

The deaf would see the removal of their blight.

 

The lame would leap with heartfelt joy;

The dumb would their tongues employ.

These were mighty signs from God;

They reflect the Messiah as the Lord.

 

The blessings would extend to the land;

God would cause the wilderness to mend.

Streams in the desert would appear;

Blessings about when the Saviour draws near.

 

Advent was just the commencement;

Our challenge is to heed His commandments.

Great are the blessings God has in store;

His mercy would abound more and more.
