Preparation and Expectation
O Bright Sun
of Justice, Judge of all the world,
seeking to straighten what is crooked
and put right what is wrong,
come with dread power and stark mercy
to our reluctant hearts. Jim Cotter ‘Cries of Advent’ No 6.
From Prayer in the Morning, Cairns Publications 1989.
A voice cries out, “In the wilderness prepare the way of the Lord,
make straight in the desert a highway for our God.
Isaiah 40:3
Then the glory of the Lord shall be revealed, and all people shall see it together,
for the mouth of the Lord has spoken.”
Isaiah 40: 5
