A Pilgrim Song

1-3 It seemed like a dream, too good to be true,

whenGodreturned Zion’s exiles.

We laughed, we sang,

we couldn’t believe our good fortune.

We were the talk of the nations—

“Godwas wonderful to them!”

Godwaswonderful to us;

we are one happy people.

4-6 And now,God, do it again—

bring rains to our drought-stricken lives

So those who planted their crops in despair

will shout hurrahs at the harvest,

So those who went off with heavy hearts

will come home laughing, with armloads of blessing.
