Our hope is in the coming King
The Branch and yet the Root
Who died & rose this hope to bring
The Branch will bear much fruit

He’ll rule with wisdom and with might
He’ll judge with righteousness
Fear of the Lord is his delight
Away with wickedness!

He’ll end the strife, bring in the peace
And all will know the Lord
From violence and the curse – release
Eden will be restored

The remnant comes from all the earth
From every century
Together we’ll proclaim his worth
For all eternity

– From a sermon on Isaiah 11
