Lord, you are my God; I will exalt you and praise your name, for in perfect faithfulness you have done wonderful things, things planned long ago.
You have been a refuge for the poor, a refuge for the needy in their distress, a shelter from the storm and a shade from the heat.
On this mountain the Lord Almighty will prepare a feast of rich food for all peoples.
On this mountain he will destroy the shroud that enfolds all peoples, the sheet that covers all nations; he will swallow up death forever. The Sovereign Lord will wipe away the tears from all faces.
The Lord has spoken.
If the Lord has spoken, it must come to pass. I look forward to the day when death is forever swallowed up and tears are wiped away! Our sad and broken world sees too many tears and too much death. Come, Lord Jesus.
