The desert wind was strong and wide,
By Jordan’s stream the crowds would bide.
John’s voice rang clear through dust and sun,
“Jehovah’s work has now begun.”
He urged them, “Turn from sinful way,
Prepare your hearts for God today.
The Kingdom’s near, the time is right,
Repent and walk within His light.”
Jehovah chose John’s voice to call,
To turn the hearts and guide us all.
He preached the hope the Scriptures bring,
The coming of our promised King.
To please our God, show love each day,
In word and deed, walk in His way.
With simple clothes and humble grace,
He spoke the truth in every place.
The people came from near and far,
To seek the hope foretold by star.
“The axe is set,” he warned with care,
“Now every tree must fruit declare.
Jehovah sees each heart’s intent,
So show through deeds your true repent.”
Jehovah chose John’s voice to call,
To turn the hearts and guide us all.
He preached the hope the Scriptures bring,
The coming of our promised King.
To please our God, show love each day,
In word and deed, walk in His way.
“To soldiers, tax men,” John would call,
“Be just and fair; deceive not all.
If coats you keep, then share your store,
Let love for others balance more.”
When priests and Levites questioned him,
He stood with courage, never dim.
“I’m but a voice in desert land,
For God’s foretold and guiding hand.”
Jehovah chose John’s voice to call,
To turn the hearts and guide us all.
He preached the hope the Scriptures bring,
The coming of our promised King.
To please our God, show love each day,
In word and deed, walk in His way.
“The one who comes is great indeed,
With holy spirit He will lead.
I’m not so worthy, truth I say,
To loose His sandals on that day.”
Jehovah chose John’s voice to call,
To turn the hearts and guide us all.
He preached the hope the Scriptures bring,
The coming of our promised King.
To please our God, show love each day,
In word and deed, walk in His way.
Jehovah chose John’s voice to call,
To turn the hearts and guide us all.
He preached the hope the Scriptures bring,
The coming of our promised King.
To please our God, show love each day,
In word and deed, walk in His way.
To please our God, show love each day,
In word and deed, walk in His way.
