Then were our mouths brimming with laughter; Joy from our lips gushed like a stream. The godless cried in envious wonder, “Look what the Lord has done for them!” Indeed our God has greatly blessed us; Rejoice and sing, Jerusalem! 2 Once more, O Lord, restore your people; Come with your saving help again, As to the brook-beds in the desert You bring the sweet, reviving rain. Let those who sow with tears and sighing Sing as they reap and joy proclaim; May those who weep when seed is scattered Gather their sheaves and praise your name. --- 1 Cuando el Señor desde el destierro, como un sueño nos trajo a Sión, de nuestros labios brotaron cantos, y en nuestra boca risa abundó. Y las naciones exclamaron: "Ved comó Dios les hizo bien". Y así es: él nos bendijo. ¡Canta con gozo, Jerusalén! 2 Ven, otra vez, Señor, restaura; envía hoy tu salvación. Cual manantial en tierra seca, tu lluvia, Dios, derrama hoy. Que los que siegan con llanto amargo con gozo digan al cantar: "Los que con lágrimas sembraron con regocijo han de segar".

From Highest Heaven

Author: Neil Barham Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #1632 Hymnal Title: The Cyber Hymnal First Line: The call goes out from highest Heaven Lyrics: 1. The call goes out from highest Heaven, From that great Voice whose vast decree Calls out of nothing all creation, And brings to birth eternity. Go down, My Son, go down from Heaven, Bring My belovèd home to Me. Go find her, lost, abandoned, ruined, Storm-tossed in sin’s relentless sea. 2. Now speaks the Prince of highest Heaven, Whose light no seraph can endure— Who owns the glories of the Godhead By right and title all-secure. Yes, I will go, go down from Heaven, To find our lost, our wand’ring bride, I’ll bring her home, whate’er it cost Me— I’ll bring her home, though I must die. 3. Now see Him plunge from highest Heaven, Through light-years dark, to virgin’s womb, Enfleshed in dust and human weakness: A body destined for a tomb. A long, long way from highest Heaven, He walks the ground from which He made The Man whose sons He has come seeking, The captives Satan has betrayed. 4. With tears He cries to highest Heaven, Lord, let this cup now pass from Me! His blood pours down His sweating forehead; At horror’s brink, oh, what He sees! But He submits to highest Heaven, Not Mine, but Thy own will be done. He rises, strengthened by an angel: Ahead there’s battle to be won. 5. The mighty wrath of highest Heaven Falls down upon bright Heaven’s Son. A rage omnipotent and righteous Burns down upon the chosen One. The Enemy of highest Heaven With snarling teeth and slashing claw, With howls of savage accusation, Calls down the curses of the Law! 6. Before the bar of highest Heaven, The Son of God convicted stands; My guilty conscience burns within Him Because my crimes are on His hands. The sentence falls from highest Heaven, Unleashing Hell upon His own, The Second Death consumes the Sacrifice. So perfect mercy can be shown. 7. Again the Voice of highest Heaven Speaks life into a three-days’ grave, And there triumphant, death defeating,1 The God-man comes, mighty to save! He will return from highest Heaven, Ten million angels in His train: He’ll claim the blood-bought bride He ransomed, To love while highest Heav’n remains. 8. 1Originally, And there, triumphant over sin and death Languages: English Tune Title: WAYFARING STRANGER

I Am a Poor Wayfaring Stranger

Author: Richard W. Adams Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #2711 Hymnal Title: The Cyber Hymnal Refrain First Line: I’m only going over Jordan Lyrics: 1. I am a poor wayfaring stranger, While traveling through this world of woe. Yet there’s no sickness, toil nor danger In that bright world to which I go. I’m going there to see my Father; I’m going there no more to roam. Refrain I’m only going over Jordan, I’m only going over home. 2. I know dark clouds will gather round me; I know my way is rough and steep. But golden fields lie out before me Where God’s redeemed shall ever sleep. I’m going there to see my mother, She said she’d meet me when I come. [Refrain] 3. I’ll soon be free from every trial, My body sleep in the churchyard; I’ll drop the cross of self denial And enter on my great reward. I’m going there to see my Savior, To sing His praise forevermore.
