Tune:[Comfort ye! comfort ye! comfort ye my people!]

63. Comfort Ye My People

1 Comfort ye! comfort ye!
Comfort ye my people!
For the days of her mourning now are past;
Comfort ye! comfort ye!
Speak good cheer to Zion,
For behold, her redemption
Comes at last.

Refrain:
Comfort ye! comfort ye!
Comfort ye, my people!
Comfort ye, my people,
Saith the Lord!

2 Comfort ye! comfort ye!
Comfort ye my people!
For hence-forth are her sorrows turned to gain;
Comfort ye! comfort ye!
God Himself has spoken,
For her King in His beauty
Comes to reign. [Refrain]
