The Message
1 It seemed like a dream, too good to be true, when God returned Zion's exiles.
2 we couldn't believe our good fortune. We were the talk of the nations— "God was wonderful to them!"
3 we are one happy people.
4 bring rains to our drought-stricken lives
5 will shout hurrahs at the harvest,
6 will come home laughing, with armloads of blessing.
