The Lord has done great things for them

Psalm 126 (KJV 1900)

Psalm 126

A Song of degrees.

1  When the Lord turned again the captivity of Zion,

We were like them that dream.

2  Then was our mouth filled with laughter,

And our tongue with singing:

Then said they among the heathen,

The Lord hath done great things for them.

3  The Lord hath done great things for us;

Whereof we are glad.

4  Turn again our captivity, O Lord,

As the streams in the south.

5  They that sow in tears shall reap in joy.

6  He that goeth forth and weepeth, bearing precious seed,

Shall doubtless come again with rejoicing, bringing his sheaves with him.
