When God, from sin's captivity.
Sets His believing people free.
Lost in amaze, their mercies seem
The transient raptures of a dream.
But soon they gladly triumph thus, —
The Lord hath done great things for us ;
Turn our captivity, Lord,
Like southern streams which hear Thy word!
Who sow in tears, shall reap in joy ;
Nought shall the precious seed destroy ;
Nor long the weeping exile roam.
But bring their sheaves rejoicing home.
