For the sake of Zion,
I will not stay silent;
But roar like a lion,
To complain to relent.
For I will never rest,
Righteousness shines like dawn;
Getting it off my chest,
Where salvation has gone.
Nations see righteousness,
As glory seems to fade;
Since kings think hopelessness,
Causing us to have strayed.
But your glory will shine,
And given a new name;
Child of the divine,
That the Lord will proclaim.
A beautiful crown,
In the hand of the Lord;
From Heaven looking down,
Being in one accord.
No longer will you be,
Considered forsaken;
For glory others see,
Since you did awaken.
Land no longer destroyed,
You will be His delight;
The land that you enjoyed,
A marriage in His sight.
Man marries a woman,
He rejoices your bride;
Wedded bliss has begun,
Through a spiritual pride.
God posted a sentry,
A watchman on the wall;
Vigilant on entry,
Makes any foe to fall.
No silence day or night,
When you call on the Lord;
For you are His delight,
You are never ignored.
