Psalms 126
126
Lord, Give Our Riches Back
A song for going up to worship.
1When the Lord gave the riches back to Jerusalem,
it seemed as if we were dreaming.
2Then we were filled with laughter,
and we sang happy songs.
Then the other nations said,
“The Lord has done great things for them.”
3The Lord has done great things for us,
and we are very glad.
4Lord, give us back our riches again.
Do this as you bring streams to the desert.
5Those who cry as they plant crops
will sing at harvesttime.
6Those who cry
as they carry out the seeds
will return singing
and carrying bundles of grain.

PSALM 126
Common Meter: 8,6,8,6
1When Sion's bondage God turn'd back,
as men that dream'd were we.
2Then fill'd with laughter was our mouth,
our tongue with melody:
They 'mong the heathen said, The Lord
great things for them hath wrought.
3The Lord hath done great things for us,
whence joy to us is brought.
4As streams of water in the south,
our bondage, Lord, recall.
5Who sow in tears, a reaping time
of joy enjoy they shall.
6That man who, bearing precious seed,
in going forth doth mourn,
He doubtless, bringing back his sheaves,
rejoicing shall return.
