Sing for Joy, O Earth, O Sky Sing for Joy, You mountains high Sing for Joy, the Lord has come With comfort for his suffering ones No no no no - The Lord's forgotten me No no no no - I am forsaken I won't sing, the Lord has left me Utterly alone So no no no no no But he said: Can a mom forget her newborn son? Can she ever hate her precious baby? God will not for get you, child even though you wander lately He has carved you into his hand Your wall stands before his eyes Your builders outdo your destroyers Rise - Rise He will clothe you like a bride So rise! No no no no - The Lord's forgotten me No no no no - I am forsaken I won't sing, the Lord has left me Utterly alone So no no no no no Surely your waste and desolate places And your devastated land Will overflow with crowds together You'll have no room to stand The enemies who broke your city Will be far away And the kids you raised when you were broken The kids you bore will say: Sing for Joy, O Earth, O Sky Sing for Joy, You mountains high Sing for Joy, the Lord has come With comfort for his suffering ones
