Who is my servant
– where is she?
My light to the
nations – where is he?
In prison and
palace my gospel who told
And living my
gospel became
This is my servant
Whom I shall uphold
His name is
Christ
Is her name
Who answers to
slander with silence
And vengeance
returns not for violence
Who shouts to the
darkness in people grown cold
A word that shall
set them aflame
Refrain
Who sing of my
love in their living
Whose days are a
prayer of thanksgiving
Who seek not the
glamour of glory and gold
For I am their
fortune and fame
Refrain
Who stand in the
storm like a beacon
With the hope for
the ravaged and weakened
Whose presence is
healing for young and for old
To friend and to
stranger the same
Refrain
Who, choosing a
way I will show them,
Will trust that I
care for my chosen
Where is the
spouse who is faithful to one
And thus, to the
children proclaim
This my beloved,
My daughter, my son
His name is
Christ
Is her name!
