A Distant Voice (Lyrics) Words by Randy Vader Music by Jay Rouse Arranged by Jay Rouse A distant voice from a barren land; Let all rejoice, obey His command. Level the mountains, straighten the roads; Tell the world, let everyone know: The waiting has ended, His Kingdom at hand; Redemption is dawning as the Father has planned. The Savior is coming, the promise is sealed, His power and glory no longer concealed And the glory of the Lord, yes, the glory of the Lord, The glory of the Lord is soon to be revealed. God’s only Son has come to this place; Eternal cloaked in time and space. Angel choirs announce His birth, Joy to all and peace on this earth. The waiting has ended, His Kingdom at hand; Redemption is dawning as the Father has planned. The Savior is coming, the promise is sealed, His power and glory no longer concealed And the glory of the Lord, yes, the glory of the Lord, The glory of the Lord The Savior is coming, the promise is sealed, His power and glory no longer concealed And the glory of the Lord, yes, the glory of the Lord, The glory of the Lord is soon to be revealed.

Mary’s Hope (Lyrics) Words by Rose Aspinall and Randy Vader Music by Jay Rouse In the quiet of this moment, Whispered prayers are what I sing. I am blessed beyond all measure For the wonder that You bring. I know I have been chosen, Yet I know I’m just a girl. Now my joyful tears fall down On the Hope of all the world. May You know the peace You promise As You hear a higher call. May You know Your Father’s pleasure As the Chosen One of all. May You find the strength to take You To wherever You must be And when You need some peace and comfort, Find Your way back home to me. Find Your way back to me, When You feel all alone. For wherever You are, You can always come home. Now the eventide is silent; Nestle close, my dearest One. For my heart is overflowing. Thank You, God, for our Son. Rest, little Yeshua, You are safe now from all harm And my only Hope in this world is cradled in my arms. © 2011 PraiseGathering Music (Admin. by Music Services. www.musicservices.org).
