A Song of Degrees

Appears in 2 hymnals First Line: When from captivity the Lord Lyrics: 1 When from captivity the LORD his Zion did redeem: We in extacy of soul were like to them who dream. 2 Then were our mouths with laughter fill'd, Our tongues with shouts did sound: 'The LORD hath done great things for them' the heathen freely own'd. 3 Great things and marvellous for us, the LORD hath done indeed; In the surprizing view whereof our hearts with joy exceed. 4 LORD, our remaining, captives bring home from the barb'rous foe. Like cooling streams which in the south to thirsty regions flow. 5 Who sow in tears shall reap in joy: 6 Who going forth, did mourn, Baring choice seed; shall fill'd with joy, bringing full sheaves return. Scripture: Psalm 126
