A Prayer for Deliverance
1 When the Lord brought us back to Jerusalem,126.1: brought us back to Jerusalem; or made Jerusalem prosperous again.
it was like a dream!
2 How we laughed, how we sang for joy!
Then the other nations said about us,
"The Lord did great things for them."
3 Indeed he did great things for us;
how happy we were!
4 Lord, make us prosperous again,126.4: make us prosperous again; or take us back to our land.
just as the rain brings water back to dry riverbeds.
5 Let those who wept as they planted their crops,
gather the harvest with joy!
6 Those who wept as they went out carrying the seed
will come back singing for joy,
as they bring in the harvest.
