In the wilderness, God's voice was heard Calling to John with a mighty word
Prepare the way, make the paths clear The Savior is coming, the time is near
You brood of vipers, John did cry Repent and turn the axe's knife
Don't trust in Abraham's name alone For God can raise new heirs from stone
A voice of one calling in the wilderness Prepare the way for the Lord, make straight paths for him
Every valley shall be filled and every mountain and hill made low
The crooked road shall become straight, the rough way smooth And all people will see God's salvation
The people asked, what should we do? Share with the needy, be faithful and true
Tax collectors take no more than your share And soldiers do justice with hearts that care
The people wondered, could he be the Christ? But John declared, I'm not the light
One greater comes, whose sandals I am not Worthy to untie
He'll baptize with fire and the Holy Spirit His winnowing fork will sift the land
The wheat he'll gather with his hand But the chaff will burn in unquenchable flame
The king grew angry and locked John away For calling out his sins that day
But John's bold words still echo clear Repent and prepare, the Lord is near
A voice of one calling in the wilderness Prepare the way for the Lord, make straight paths for him
Every valley shall be filled and every mountain and hill made low
The crooked road shall become straight, the rough way smooth And all people will see God's salvation
Prepare the way, the king is near His love and grace will cast out fear
Hearts will be changed, the world will see God's salvation for you and for me
