RestorationJoyTearsHarvest
1When the Lord brought his people back from captivity to Zion, it was as if we were dreaming!
2We laughed so much, we sang for joy. The other nations said, “The Lord has done wonderful things for these people.”
3The Lord certainly has done wonderful things for us. How happy we were!
4Please return and help us again, Lord. Renew us like streams of water that renew the Negev desert.
5Those who sow in tears will reap with shouts of joy!
6Those who weep as they go out to sow their seed will be singing in celebration when they carry the harvest home.
