Cry Aloud

Cry Aloud

Cry aloud

Spare not

Lift your voice 

Like a trumpet

Cry aloud

Spare not

Lift your voice like a trumpet

Tell My people their transgression

Yet they seek me daily 

They delight to know my ways

As a nation that did righteousness

And did not forsake the ordinance of their God

They seek me daily 

Delight to know my ways

As the nation that does righteousness

And did not forsake the ordinance of their God

There’s no peace saith my God for the wicked

You say you take delight in approaching God

Why have we fasted you say

We shall not been seen

Why have we afflicted our souls

But you take no notice

At the day of your fast you find pleasure

Exploit your labor

You say you take delight approaching God

Why have we fasted ye say and God has not seen

Why have we afflicted our souls

And you take no notice

At the day of your fast you find pleasure

Exploit your labor

Indeed you fast for strife and debate

You strike with the fist of wickedness

You will not fast as you do this day

To make your voice heard on high

Is this the fast that I have chosen?

A day for a man to afflict his soul

To bow down his head like a bulrush

To spread out sackcloth and ashes

Would you call this a fast acceptable to the Lord?

Cry aloud

Spare not

Lift your voice like a trumpet

Tell my people their transgression

Yet they seek me daily

And they delight to know my way

Like a nation that did righteousness

And did not forsake the ordinance of their God

Yet they seek me daily

Delight to know my way

As the nation that did righteousness

And did not forsake the ordinance of their God

Cry aloud

Spare not

Tell my people their transgression

Lift your voice like a trumpet

Tell my people their transgression

And the house of Jacob their sin

Yet they seek me daily

As a nation that did righteousness

They seek me daily

They delight to know my way

As a nation that did righteousness

And did not forsake the ordinance of their God

There’s no peace saith my God for the wicked

You say you take delight in approaching God

Why have we fasted you say

We shall not been seen

Why have we afflicted our souls

And you take no notice

At the day of your fast you find pleasure

Exploit your labor

You say you take delight approaching God

For why have we fasted ye say and God has not seen

Why have we afflicted our souls

And you take no notice

At the day of your fast you find pleasure

Exploit your labor

Indeed you fast for strife and debate

You strike with the fist of wickedness

You will not fast as you do this day

To make your voice heard on high

Is this the fast that I have chosen?

A day for a man to afflict his soul

To bow down his head like a bulrush

To spread out sackcloth and ashes

Would you call this a fast acceptable to the Lord?

Cry aloud

Spare not

Lift your voice 

Like a trumpet

Tell my people their transgression

And the house of Jacob their sin

Learn what this means

I desire mercy not sacrifice

Come learn of me

Take my yoke upon you for I am meek and humble of heart

And you will find rest for your weary soul

You will find rest in me

Come learn of me

I am meek and humble

Humble of heart

Cry aloud

Spare not

Lift your voice 

Like a trumpet

Tell my people their transgression

And the house of Jacob their sin
