PRAISE THE ONE WHO BREAKS THE DARKNESS
BY RUSTY EDWARDS
Praise the One who break the darkness
with a liberating light.
Praise the One who frees the prisoners
turning blindness into sight.
Praise the One who preached the Gospel
healing every dread disease.
Calming storms and feeding thousands
with the very bread of peace.
Praise the One who blessed the children
with a strong yet gentle word.
Praise the One who drove out demons
with a piercing two-edged sword.
Praise the one who brings cool water
to the desert's burning sand.
From this well comes living water
quenching thirst in every land.
Praise the one true love incarnate:
Christ who suffered in our place.
Jesus died and rose for many
that we may know God by grace.
Let us sing for joy and gladness
seeing what our God has done.
Praise the one redeeming glory,
praise the One who makes us one.

This song is not written by James Laster, although Laster did an arrangement of it for Concordia Publishing. It is written by Rusty Edwards. This is, however, a very nice arrangement. It can be sung to a number of different hymn tunes, although Beach Spring is my favorite.

Exactly what I am here for

[@mkl62]

I am an ELCA Lutheran from South Carolina. I play the piano and organ. Today (August 10, Pentecost 9), we sang this as our Closing Hymn. However, it was to the tune, NETTLETON; J. Wyeth, Repository of Sacred Music, Part II, 1813. It is #843 in Evangelical Lutheran Worship.
