PREPARE YE THE WAY OF THE LORD

The voice of him that crieth in the wilderness, 

Prepare ye the way of the LORD, 

make straight in the desert a highway 

for our God.  Every valley shall be exalted, 

and every mountain and hill shall be made low: 

and the crooked shall be made straight, 

and the rough places plain:

And the glory of the LORD shall be 

revealed, and all flesh shall see it together: 

for the mouth of the LORD hath spoken it.

The voice said, Cry. And he said, 

What shall I cry? All flesh is grass, 

and all the godliness thereof is as 

the flower of the field:  The grass withereth, 

the flower fadeth: because the spirit 

of the LORD bloweth upon it: 

surely the people is grass.

The grass withereth, the flower fadeth: 

but the word of our God shall stand for ever.

O Zion, that bringest good tidings, get thee up 

into the high mountain; O Jerusalem, that 

bringest good tidings, lift up thy voice with 

strength; lift it up, be not afraid; say unto the 

cities of Judah, Behold your God!

Isaiah 40:3-9
