Prayer heard, and Zion restored

Hymnal: The Psalms of David #CIIb (1780) First Line: Let Zion and her sons rejoice Lyrics: 1 Let Zion and her sons rejoice; Behold the promis'd hour; Her God hath heard her mourning voice, And comes t' exalt his pow'r. 2 Her dust and ruins that remain Are precious in our eyes; Those ruins shall be built again, And all that dust shall rise. 3 The Lord will raise Jerusalem, And stand in glory there; Nations shall bow before his name, And kings attend with fear. 4 He sits a sov'reign on his throne, With pity in his eyesL He hears the dying pris'ners' groan, And sees their sighs arise. 5 He frees the souls condemn'd to death; And when his saints complain, It shan't be said that praying breath Was ever spent in vain. 6 This shall be known when we are dead, And left on long record, That ages yet unborn may read, And trust and praise the Lord.
