Composition and Performance by Vera Six 

~°~*~°~

One day the LORD will free
all the captives of Zion,
and we'll be like dreamers,
our hearts full of joy.

~°~*~°~

All the world will praise the LORD
for the great things He has done,
so many great things to them,
and so many great things to us.

~°~*~°~

We shall laugh and sing
and be glad that they are free.
O LORD,
set all the captives free
as the streams in the south.

~°~*~°~

They that sow in tears
shall reap and rejoice!
They that sow in tears
shall reap and rejoice!

~°~*~°~

He'll go out and weep

bearing precious seed,

but he will come again with joy

bringing in all the sheaves.

~°~*~°~

They that sow in tears
shall reap and rejoice!
They that sow in tears
shall reap and rejoice!

Psalm 126 - A Song of degrees.

When the LORD turned again the captivity of Zion,

we were like them that dream.

Then was our mouth filled with laughter,

and our tongue with singing:
then said they among the heathen,

The LORD hath done great things for them.

The LORD hath done great things for us;

whereof we are glad.

Turn again our captivity, O LORD,

as the streams in the south.

They that sow in tears shall reap in joy.

He that goeth forth and weepeth,

bearing precious seed,

shall doubtless
come again with rejoicing,

bringing his sheaves with him.

(King James Version)

Psalm 1

Psalm 1

Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor standeth in the way of sinners, nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful.


But his delight is in the law of the LORD; and in his law doth he meditate day and night.


And he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that bringeth forth his fruit in his season; his leaf also shall not wither; and whatsoever he doeth shall prosper.


The ungodly are not so: but are like the chaff which the wind driveth away.


Therefore the ungodly shall not stand in the judgment, nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous.


For the LORD knoweth the way of the righteous: but the way of the ungodly shall perish.

Psalms 73 - A Song of Asaph

Truly God is good to Israel, even to such as are of a clean heart.
But as for me, my feet were almost gone; my steps had well nigh slipped.

For I was envious at the foolish, when I saw the prosperity of the wicked.
For there are no bands in their death: but their strength is firm.
They are not in trouble as other men; neither are they plagued like other men.
Therefore pride compasseth them about as a chain; violence covereth them as a garment.
Their eyes stand out with fatness: they have more than heart could wish.
They are corrupt, and speak wickedly concerning oppression: they speak loftily.
They set their mouth against the heavens, and their tongue walketh through the earth.

Therefore his people return hither: and waters of a full cup are wrung out to them.
And they say, How doth God know? and is there knowledge in the most High?
Behold, these are the ungodly, who prosper in the world; they increase in riches.

Verily I have cleansed my heart in vain, and washed my hands in innocency.
For all the day long have I been plagued, and chastened every morning.

If I say, I will speak thus; behold, I should offend against the generation of thy children.
When I thought to know this, it was too painful for me;
Until I went into the sanctuary of God; then understood I their end.

Surely thou didst set them in slippery places: thou castedst them down into destruction.
How are they brought into desolation, as in a moment! they are utterly consumed with terrors.

As a dream when one awaketh; so, O Lord, when thou awakest, thou shalt despise their image.

Thus my heart was grieved, and I was pricked in my reins.
So foolish was I, and ignorant: I was as a beast before thee. 

Nevertheless I am continually with thee: thou hast holden me by my right hand.
Thou shalt guide me with thy counsel, and afterward receive me to glory.

Whom have I in heaven but thee? and there is none upon earth that I desire beside thee.
My flesh and my heart faileth: but God is the strength of my heart, and my portion for ever.
For, lo, they that are far from thee shall perish: thou hast destroyed all them that go a  whoring from thee.

But it is good for me to draw near to God: I have put my trust in the Lord GOD, that I may  declare all thy works.
