Tune: Was Lebet
(\'O worship the Lord in the beauty of holiness\')
Zephaniah 3 v.14-20 (Old Testament prophet)
**********
Sing, O children of Zion, and shout all Israel
Be glad and rejoice now with the heart all
You people of Jerusalem, the Lord He has taken
Away your judgements, removed evil men
Has cast out your enemy, the Lord, He King among you
You shall see evil no more, this be true
It shall be said to Jerusalem, Fear not, now you
Zion, be not weak, the Lord good shall do
He is in the midst of you is mighty, and He will save
He will rejoice over you, with joy have
He will rest in His love and quieten you peacefully
He will joy over you with singing free
He will gather them that are sorrowful for the right
Where they see wrongs grievous unto His sight
He will deal with all that afflict you, save in that day
The weak, oppressed, they who were cast away
He will get them praise and fame in every land where they
Had been put to shame in enemy\'s day
He will bring them back, gather them their prosperity
Shall be known to all, no captivity
The first verse is usually repeated at the end, so....
Sing, O children of Zion, and shout all Israel
Be glad and rejoice now with the heart all
You people of Jerusalem, the Lord He has taken
Away your judgements, removed evil men
