Lyrics:

We are walking in the deep, deep dark,
Stagger suddenly beneath this weight
Has the future ever seemed so stark?
Have you ever felt your heart so ache?

But the light that flows into these shadowlands
Only the passion of God could create
He will lift off your burden to let you stand--
This is the peace for which we wait

(Chorus)
Wake up, wake up, and sing a new song;
Glory to God, here comes the True Dawn
Wake up, wake up, and sing a new song

Songwriter's Comments: I wrote this for the Christmas Eve 2009 worship service at New Hope Christian Church, Columbus, Indiana.  The scriptures for that service were Psalm 96:1-4, Isaiah 9:2-7, and Luke 2:1-14.  The verses were shaped around the Isaiah passage, while the chorus came primarily from the psalm.  The Luke passage was woven throughout the song.

Psalm 67 (All the Peoples)

Audio:


Lyrics:

May God be gracious to you, and heal you with his blessings
And may you find His face to shine
Oh, we would be such self-centered fools to grab what He's been giving
And not tell the world Who gave us this life

Let all the peoples praise you, o God; Let all the people praise Your name
Let all the peoples praise you, o God; Let all the people praise Your name

And may we sing to show our joy and the myst'ry of our Savior
A God of justice, wisdom, and peace
So now I long to hear your voice, to join with all the nations

Psalm 23

Lyrics:

REFRAIN:
Though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death,
I will not carry fear, for You are here with me
Though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death,
I will not carry fear, for You are here with me

My Shepherd is the Lord; He makes me lie down in green pastures.
My Shepherd is the Lord; He leads me beside still pools.
My Shepherd is the Lord; He guides me along right paths
My Shepherd is the Lord; Bringing honor to His name

Refrain

Psalm 8 (O Lord, Our Lord)

Audio:


Lyrics:

O Lord, Our Lord, the majesty of Your name fills the earth!
O Lord, Our Lord, the majesty of Your name fills the earth!

Your glory is higher than the heavens, Yet you teach children to sing Your praise
Your enemies are covered with silence, No longer vengeful when the infants proclaim

O Lord, Our Lord, the majesty of Your name fills the earth!
O Lord, Our Lord, the majesty of Your name fills the earth!

I think on a sky that You created, The moon and stars that You set in place;

Lyrics:

Refrain:
I love the LORD because he hears and answers my prayers.
Because he bends down and listens, I will pray as long as I live!
I love the LORD because he hears and answers my prayers.
Because he bends down and listens, I will pray as long as I live!

What can I offer the LORD for all he has done for me?
I lift up a cup of salvation and praise the LORD's name just for saving me.
I will keep all of my promises to the Lord in the presence of all of His people

Refrain
