Dawning Light Of Our Salvation

Long in darkness Israel wandered
Long in mortal shadows, we
Walked in bondage and self-pity
Trod in paths of sin and grief
In the prophets' words He told us
Long the God of Israel spoke
He alone in strength would save us
From the hands of all our foes

Every valley be exalted!
Every mountain be made plane!
Crooked ways repent and straighten
All creation bend in praise!

He shall raise a mighty Savior
Born of David's lineage, He
Comes in cov'nant love to claim us
From our sins to set us free
Light to those who dwell in darkness
Life to those from death who flee
Joy unto the earth, and gladness
To your pathways dawning peace!

Every valley be exalted!
Every mountain be made plane!
Crooked ways repent and straighten
All creation bend in praise!

Jesus, Lord, and mighty Savior
David's Son and yet his King
Dawning light of our salvation
Of Your saving pow'r we sing!
Stand, Oh lame, and dance ye broken
Know the Savior's healing grace
Come, Oh deaf and hear Him singing
Turn, Oh blind, behold His face!

Every valley be exalted!
Every mountain be made plane!
Crooked ways repent and straighten
All creation bend in praise!

Every valley be exalted!
Every mountain be made plane!
Crooked ways repent and straighten
All creation bend in praise!
