A song for pilgrims ascending to Jerusalem.
1 When the LORD brought back his exiles to Jerusalem,a
it was like a dream!
1 When the LORD brought back his exiles to Jerusalem,a
it was like a dream!
2 We were filled with laughter,
and we sang for joy.
And the other nations said,
“What amazing things the LORD has done for them.”
and we sang for joy.
And the other nations said,
“What amazing things the LORD has done for them.”
3 Yes, the LORD has done amazing things for us!
What joy!
What joy!
4 Restore our fortunes, LORD,
as streams renew the desert.
as streams renew the desert.
5 Those who plant in tears
will harvest with shouts of joy.
will harvest with shouts of joy.
6 They weep as they go to plant their seed,
but they sing as they return with the harvest.
but they sing as they return with the harvest.
Psalms, 126 psalm
