1 When God did lay aside his wrath, And [Captive] Zion did redeem, The great surprisal of our joy Made us like men that [do but] dream.
1 WHen God did lay aside his wrath, And [Captive] Sion did redeem, The great surprisal of our joy Made us like men that [do but] dream.
2 Our mouth then filled with laughter did [By] singing our [great] joy express; That God hath done great things for us, The heathen [enemies] did confess.
2 Our mouth then fill'd with laughter did [By] singing our [great] joy express; That God hath done great things for us, The heathen [enemies] did confess.
3 That God hath done great things for us, We speak with [glad and] thankful mouth:
4 Fully restore thy Captives, Lord, As streams refresh the [scorched] South.
