A voice came to me in the night,
There is no need for you to roam;
For just follow the beam of light,
It will guide you to your new home.
Sing happily all you people,
Shouting loudly as you declare;
While proclaiming the Gospel,
When meeting others always share.
Celebrate in joy with all your heart,
The Lord has given you pardon;
He is giving you a new start,
And wants you to tend His garden.
He has forced out all of your foes,
Because the Lord of Hosts is with you;
For it is you that the Lord chose,
To show others His point of view.
So never again will you fear,
Of any disaster again;
For on that day which will be near,
Everyone will know by then.
No need for you to be afraid,
And never lose courageousness;
For God will save and give you aid,
Spreading on you His graciousness.
God is a hero, who saves you,
And jubilantly rejoices;
Visions that come all the night through,
With hearing celestial voices.
The Lord renews you with His love,
Celebrates with the sound of joy;
Those as non-believers thereof,
Will feel His wrath which will destroy.
At that time God will spare the lame,
Gather those who have been scattered;
Exposing others for their shame,
Healing those who have been battered.
At that time God will bring us home,
All of those gathered together;
No longer do you have to roam,
Onto a place that is better.
