Do not keep silent or quiet
Until vindication comes to Jerusalem
And her salvation shines
Out like the blazing dawn
All nations and kings
Will see her glory,
Bestowed with a new name
From the mouth of the Lord
In the hand of God
Treasured, she will be
Crowned with splendour
And glorious majesty
No longer will she be known
As desolate and deserted
But she will be a delight
And her land will flourish
The Lord will build her up
And rejoice over her with song
As a bridegroom to a bride
God has sworn this by His mighty arm
Persevere in prayer to God
For that established day
When Zion is the praise of the earth
And justice, within her, prevails
Then those who labour
Will reap their own rewards,
Feasting in the courts
Of the sanctuary of the LORD
Enter in! Enter in!
Prepare the way for people to return
Make a clear path,
Remove the stumbling stones
Raise a banner for the nations
For the LORD proclaims through all the earth:
See, your Saviour comes
To reward those who have served
God’s Holy People, they will be called,
Those Redeemed of the LORD
And Zion will be Much Desired,
No Longer Forsaken, Forlorn
