The Jews are carried captive to Babylon 
Returning in the due time of the Lord 
Six hundred years the coming of the Word 
The Saviour of the world, Redeeming One

Prepare the way, cries one before He’s known
Whose latchet I’m unworthy to unloose 
Baptised in Bethabara for the truth 
The Lamb of God in glory is now shown

Diligently seeking ye shall find 
The mysteries of God then shall unfold 
Revealing power of the Holy Ghost 
Desirous shall know in heart and mind

Messiah, promised deliverer of the Jews  
Delivered them and will deliver you
