Be glad, O people of the earth!
Lift up your heart with song and dance,
for I am with you, yes within you, forever:
you are the heart of my heart.
I will never forget you, O my people;
on the day of anguish I will answer you.
As you join in celebration,
my joy will move among you. Chorus
You shall find a land to be your home,
where sheep and cattle may freely roam,
mountains from which springs
shall flow with living waters. Chorus
I will make your faith burn brightly,
so that others may find life's fullness:
freedom for all captives
and justice for all nations. Chorus
