psalm

Lord, Bring Your People Back

A song for going up to worship.

126 
When the Lord brought the prisoners back to Jerusalem,

it seemed as if we were dreaming.

Then we were filled with laughter,

and we sang happy songs.

Then the other nations said,

“The Lord has done great things for them.”

The Lord has done great things for us,

and we are very glad.

Lord, return our prisoners again,

as you bring streams to the desert.

Those who cry as they plant crops

will sing at harvest time.

Those who cry

as they carry out the seeds

will return singing

and carrying bundles of grain.
