Yet the Lord longs to be
Gracious to you
He rises to show you compassion
For the Lord is a God of justice
Blessed are all who wait for Him
O people of Zion
Who live in Jerusalem
You will weep no more
You will weep no more
How gracious He will be
When you cry for help
As soon as He hears
He will answer you
