When the Lord brought back
The captive ones of Zion
We were like those who dream
Our mouths are filled with laughter
Our tongue with joyful shouting
They say among the nations
The Lord has done great things
for them
The Lord has done great things
for us (2x)
And we are filled with joy
We are filled with joy
You've restored our hearts
Like streams that flow
Those who sowed in tears
Have reaped their joy
And returned with shouts and songs
Carrying the fruit of God
