Come and Restore (Psalm 80)

 
 

Words/Music: Daryle and Maggie Worley, 2022

Choruses were introduced on August 14 as a sung refrain to break up the reading of Psalm 80. That was last Sunday our brother, Dave DeJong, was on the drums. The full version with verses was introduced September 25th. We dearly miss this brother, we look and long for the resurrection of the dead and life in the world to come.

Come and restore, O Lord
Heal us, O God of grace
Let Your face shine on us
Shine that we may be saved

1. We are restless,
Weary from our days of woe
God and Shepherd of our souls
Will our prayers and groanings
Seem to go unheard?
Will You heal and save us, Lord?

2. We confess the blessings
You had once bestowed
We've loved more than You, O Lord
But will we stay bloody,
Beaten, broken down
Or will You turn and restore?

3. Let our hearts be faithful
And our hope set firm
On the coming of the Lord
When with pow'r and glory,
You will shine on us
And all things You will restore

Come and restore, O Lord
Heal us, O God of grace
Let Your face shine on us
Come! Jesus, come, we pray
