The Day Has Come

  C     D    G
Declare good news (3x)
D      G
To the poor
     C      D      G
Bind up the broken hearts (3x)
D         G
And make them whole

        Am           Em      D
    And proclaim the day has come (3x)
                G
    The favored day

Set free the prisoners (3x)
From their bonds
Fill every darkened cell (3x)
With Your light

    (chorus)
    ...and light has dawned

Come comfort all who mourn (3x)
And give them peace
Provide for those that grieve (3x)
And give them rest

    (chorus)
    ...the day of joy


Bestow Your crown of beauty (3x)
Cover shame
Let faces shine with glory (3x)
And with joy

    (chorus)
    ...and we're reborn


And clothe us all in praise (3x)
Drive out despair
Lift our heaviness away (3x)
And let us dance

    (chorus)
    ...to celebrate
