Greenwood


You make the broken beautiful
You make the ruined whole
You take the empty and make them full
And the chaos, with a Word, control.

Greenwood of my soul
Greentree to my sight
Speak life unto the barren
Shine your light into the night.

You make the deaf to hear your Word
You make the blind to see
You make the dead alive in Christ
And set the captives free.

The orphan and the outcast
You adopt them as your own
So those who sit in darkness
On them your Light has shown

Oh, Greenwood of my soul
Oh, Greentree, make me right
Lest I shall be put to shame
Shine your light into the night.
