Lord -
Restore us and make us like those who dream.
Fill our mouths with laughter, our tongues with shouts of joy, our voices with praise. May we rejoice and proclaim that You have done and will do great things for us.
Restore us and make our desert watercourses flow.
We sow in tears. May we reap shouts of joy. We go out weeping - bearing the seed for sowing. May we come home with sheaves full of joy.
Restore us and make us like those who dream.
Amen and amen.
