The people who walked in darkness
have seen a great light;
those who lived in a land of deep darkness — 
on them light has shined.
You have multiplied the nation,
you have increased its joy;
they rejoice before you
as with joy at the harvest
Isaiah 9:2-3a

I wait for the LORD, my soul waits,
and in his word I hope;
my soul waits for the LORD
more than those who watch for the morning,
more than those who watch for the morning.
