The people that walked in darkness.
Has seen a great light.
And we now must seek the greater stillness.
Keeping him ever in sight.

On those who live in a land of shadow.
A light has shone.
For us , who seek , we can never entirely know.
Even if we atone.

You have made their joy increase.
They rejoice in your presence.
But again and again we fail to find peace.

Not realising your omnipresence.

The rod of his oppressor.

Is now, we pray, all the lessor.

……

What’s our oppressor

Perhaps it is just ourself

Can we let it go

See Isaiah 8 : 23-9 : 3
