TURN TO ME By John Foley
Based on Isaiah 45: 22-23 Isaiah 51: 12,4,6

ANTIPHON
Turn to me, O man and be saved,
Says the Lord for I am God;
There is no other, none beside me.
I call your name.

1... I am He that comforts you;
Who are you to be afraid of man who dies,
is made like the grass of the fields, soon to wither.

2...Listen to me, my people;
Give ear to me my nation:
a law will go forth from me,
and my justice for a light to the people.

3...Lift up your eyes to the heavens,
and look at the earth down below.
The heavens will vanish like smoke,
and the earth will wear out like a garment.

You are welcome and I most certainly agree. I don't know why the words have been changed in the hymnals anyways. I just purchased the CD which contain the original lyrics by the Saint Louis Jesuits.

Bravo - the original version based on the Biblical text! THis song just works better with the Turn to me oh man instead of the turn to oh turn to me that the "new" sanitzed version uses. Thank you!
