He will drink no wine,
He will drink no liquor
Living apart before
The time to begin
With a belt on his waist
He was eating wild honey
And a camel hair clothe
Covered him
CHORUS ✤
Out of the deserts to water
Make ready the way in the land
The voice of one,
In the wilderness crying
The kingdom of Heaven's at hand.
Hearing their sin
Down by the Jordan
Who warned you snakes
Of the wrath that to come
Here's what you do
The man who has two coats
Gives one to the man
Who has none.
CHORUS ✤
With the axe at the trees
And the fire of the judgement
The deeds of your fathers
Don't count for your own
So don't rest in those
Because He could raise up
Abraham sons
From the stones
CHORUS ✤
