[Intro] Then a pure language passes through peoples, All call the name of the LORD as one. From beyond rivers the scattered bring offering, Pride leaves the mountain where boasting was done. [Verse 1] A poor and afflicted remnant is sheltered, Trusting the name that the nations ignored. No lie in their mouths, no deceit in their dwelling; They feed and lie down with no terror of sword. [Verse 2] Sing, daughter Zion, Shout, Israel. Rejoice with the whole heart, Jerusalem, tell. [Chorus] He will rejoice over thee with singing, The Mighty One saves in the midst of the land. He quiets the fear with the depth of his love, And gathers the weak with a merciful hand. He will rejoice over thee with singing, The judgment removed and the enemy gone. Fear not, let not your hands grow weary; The LORD in the midst makes his people strong. [Verse 2] Those who grieved far from the solemn assembly Are gathered from shame and carried back home. The lame are restored, the outcast remembered, Their sorrow exchanged for a name of renown. [Bridge] At that time he deals with the ones who afflicted, Saves what was halting and gathers what strayed. In every land where the people knew shame, Praise and a name are openly made. [Chorus - final] He will rejoice over thee with singing, The Mighty One saves in the midst of the land. He quiets the fear with the depth of his love, And gathers the weak with a merciful hand. He will rejoice over thee with singing, Bring home the dispersed before every eye. Turn back captivity, restore the dishonored, Let Zion lift praise underneath the clear sky. [Outro] He rests in his love, Then sings over the people.
