Even So Come

The big joke among musicians during Advent is that there is only one song we can play.....O Come O Come Emmanuel. While it is only partially true, it is the one song everyone associates with the Advent season. O Come O Come is one of my favorite songs of the year but I did set out to find a new song that could be my "Advent Song of the Year" and I found it. 

"Even So Come" by Kristian Stanfill and the Passion Worship Band became an instant favorite of mine in this season. The lyrics are beautiful(I have provided them below) and it is a great song to pray with and is frankly enjoyable to play. 

I wanted to share with you my cover of the song in this last week of Advent so that it may be an encouragement to you in these closing days of the Advent season. For a more in depth look at the lyrics and why I love the song so much, you can check out my recent podcast where we listen to the song and dissect it. 

I am praying that everyone who reads and listens to this may have a blessed Christmas. Enjoy!

All of creation
All of the earth
Make straight a highway
A path for the Lord
Jesus is coming soon

Call back the sinner
Wake up the saint
Let every nation shout of Your fame
Jesus is coming soon

Like a bride waiting for her groom
We'll be a Church ready for You
Every heart longing for our King
We sing
Even so come
Lord Jesus, come

There will be justice
All will be new
Your name forever
Faithful and true
Jesus is coming soon

So we wait
We wait for You
God, we wait
You're coming soon
