"It seemed like a dream, too good to be true,
when God returned to Zion's exiles.
We laughed, we sang,
we couldn't believe our good fortune.
We were the talk of the nations -
'God was wonderful to them!'
God was wonderful to us;
We were one happy people.
And now, God, do it again -
bring rains to our drought-stricken lives
So those who planted their crops in despair
will shout hurrahs at the harvest,
So those who went off with heavy hearts
will come home laughing, with armloads of blessing."
