Tune: Lyons
('Ye servants of God, your master proclaim')
Zephaniah 3 v.14-20
**************
Sing, O people of Zion, for joy shout
Be glad and rejoice, let praises ring out
With all your heart, Jerusalem's people
The Lord has taken away your judgements all
He has cast out your enemy, the Lord
Of Israel is He, and true to His word
He is in your midst, you shall evil no more
See, fear not, be strong, trust in the Lord now sure
The Lord your God in midst of you mighty
He will save, will rejoice o'er you plenty
Look on you with joy, and will in His love rest
Will joy o'er you with singing, give you His best
Will gather them, they that be sorrowful
For faithlessness there, it does them appal
Behold, at that time the Lord, He will undo
All that afflict His people, will them renew
Will save vulnerable, and will gather
Them that were driven out, He their Father
He will get His people praise and fame where'er
They have been put to shame, now blessings shall share
At that time the Lord will bring them again
Back to their land, gathering them there then
He will make them a praise among all people
When releasing them from captivity full

Orchi another great hymn calling out praise and looking for his promise. Nicely done
Thank you SB.
You are very welcome Orchi
Good write O
LOL! Orchi, I warned them the catch-and-release program at the glug hole ended years ago! Now Popeye's demanding restoration of his fishing license, Olive's threatening legal action, and Obi-Wan insists the whole thing falls under maritime law! 😂🌹🖤🙏
Thank you T. lol. Yes, Popeye & Co have even wormed their way into the lesser-known Old Testament Minor Prophets. lol.
