The Lord is With You (Advent 3)

The Lord is with you; He never leaves you
So lay your fear down and sing
His yoke is easy, His burden light,
So kneel and trust our loving King
Through every dark tragedy,
He is a source of loving comfort
He mourns and holds you as you grieve;
The Lord is with you.

The Lord is with you, in rushing waters
The rivers won't overwhelm
And when the fire arises 'round you,
You will not be without His help
He is your Savior, the Lord,
And you are precious beyond measure
You are His pleasure; You're adored
The Lord is with you.

The Lord is with you; He won't forsake you
Our God is making all things new
So be courageous; be bold and fearless
What He has promised, He will do
Oh, from His wealth he brings joy;
And from His beauty He gives blessing
In our distress we hear His voice;
The Lord is with You.

The Lord is with you; He lives within you
And through you He will do great things
Most High and Holy, in manger lowly,
Oh here the paradox begins
For these are strange words to hear
For you and me or Virgin Mary
His very birth says, "Have no fear,"
The Lord is with you.
