Let the Valleys Be Raised

Let the valleys be raised, and the mountains made low,
Every meadow and field overturn.
Make the pathway straight; and the highway run smooth,
For the coming of God in our day.
God has come to His people,
As He promised of old.
He has raised up a Saviour,
In the sight of us all.
You little child, go before Him,
Like the prophets of old.
Bringing news of His coming,
By the mercy of God.
God has come like the morning,
On the darkness of night.
As a light to the people,
Like the breaking of day.
