You were prosperous in your land,
Being restored of the fortunes;
Since you followed of His command,
Without doubt or any questions.
God forgave the iniquity,
As He covered all of your sin;
Now living in tranquility,
Having a new life to begin.
The Lord withdrew all of His wrath,
And turned away His hot anger;
Saving you from its aftermath,
Prompted resulted from languor.
O God of our salvation,
Please restore to us once again;
Put away Your indignation,
Revive us how it once had been.
Will You be angry forever?
Prolonged to all generations;
An anger that will not sever,
An act without alterations.
Will You revive us again?
So that Your people may rejoice;
Revive us how it had once been,
Hear us as I lift up my voice.
I ask to show Your steadfast love,
In granting us Your salvation;
Letting Your grace flow from above,
Building us a new foundation.
Let me hear what the Lord will speak,
Unto His people to speak peace;
But let not to from what we seek,
As our land to yield an increase.
Let the truth spring out from the earth,
Like water from a gushing fountain;
As righteousness gives us new birth,
Falling on us from Heaven again.
