The Desert

Verse 1: Out in the wilderness, the Spirit led the way,

Forty days and nights, where the wild beasts lay.

Tempted by the darkness, but angels stood by,

In the silence of the desert, under the open sky.

Chorus: The time has come, the kingdom’s near,

Repent and believe, let go of your fear.

The good news is calling, hear the Savior’s voice,

In the wilderness, we find our choice.

Verse 2: John was taken, but the message carried on,

Into Galilee, where the light of hope shone.

Proclaiming the good news, the kingdom’s at hand,

In the heart of the desert, we make our stand.

Chorus: The time has come, the kingdom’s near,

Repent and believe, let go of your fear.

The good news is calling, hear the Savior’s voice,

In the wilderness, we find our choice.

Guitar solo;

Bridge: Forty days of trial, forty nights of test,

With the wild animals, but angels gave us rest.

Tempted by the shadows, but the light breaks through,

In the wilderness, we find what’s true.

Chorus: The time has come, the kingdom’s near,

Repent and believe, let go of your fear.

The good news is calling, hear the Savior’s voice,

In the wilderness, we find our choice.

Outro: Out in the wilderness, the Spirit led the way,

Forty days and nights, where the wild beasts lay.

Tempted by the darkness, but angels stood by,

In the silence of the desert, under the open sky.
