Lyrics
Hear the word of the Lord ? Oh nations of the earth
And declare it in the isles far away and say
He who scattered Israel will gather Him
He will watch over Him like a Shepherd does His flock
For the Lord is yearning for Zion
Hear the Word of the Lord oh Kings of the earth
God is zealous for Zion with great zeal
What He promised He will do ? He is Faithful and True
Like a mighty Man of war He will fight for them
For the Lord is yearning for Zion
Yes, I have loved you with an everlasting love
With lovingkindness I have drawn you
Once again, you will sing and rejoice
Even though I spoke against you earnestly I remember you
Hear oh Israel my heart yearns for you
Set your heart on the highway and return.
From the ends of the earth I will bring you back to me
You?re not forsaken ? You are Hephzibah
My delight is in you forever more.
