When Zion’s Fortunes God Restored
- When Zion’s fortunes God restored,
it seemed as if a dream.
Our mouths were then with laughter filled,
our tongues with shouts of glee. - The nations said, “The LORD has done
great things for Israel.”
The LORD did mighty things for us,
our hearts with gladness swell. - Restore our fortunes, gracious LORD,
like streams in desert soil.
Then those who sow their seed in tears
shall reap with shouts of joy. - The man who, bearing seed to sow,
goes out with tears of grief,
will come again with songs of joy,
with sheaves of grain he reaps.
