Wait on the Lord;
Be of good courage,
And He shall strengthen your heart;
Wait, i say, on the Lord.
Be still, and know that i am God;
I will be exalted among the nations,
I will be exalted in the earth!
My voice You shall hear in the morning O Lord;
In the morning I will direct it to You,
And I will look up.
Our soul waits for the Lord;
He is our help and our shield.
For unto us a Child is born,
Unto us a Son is given;
And the government will be upon His shoulder.
And His name will be called
Wonderful, Counselor, Mighty God,
Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.
Of the increase of His government and peace
There will be no end,
Upon the throne of David and over His Kingdom,
To order it and establish it with judgment and justice
From that time forward, even forever.
The zeal of the Lord of hosts will perform this.
But sanctify the Lord God in your hearts, and always be ready to give a defense to everyone who asks you a reason for the hope that is in you, with meekness and fear.
