D A G Bm ... A D A G...A When the Lord re-stored the for-tunes of Zion, we were like those who dream.
D A G Bm A D A G A Then our mouths were filled with laugh - ter, and our tongues with shouts of joy;
D G A D G D A then they said a-mong the na-tions, "The Lord has done great things for them."
D G D A D...G...A Yes, the Lord has done great things for us, and we are glad!
D A G Bm...A D A G A Re-store our for-tunes, O Lord, like streams in the wild-er-ness.
D A Bm...G D A G...A May those who sow in tears reap with shouts of joy!
D A G Bm A D A G A The one who goes forth weep-ing, bear-ing the seed for sow - ing,
D A G Bm...A D A G...A shall come home with shouts of joy, bring-ing in the sheaves.
(reprise of 126:5):
D A Bm...G D A G...A May those who sow in tears reap with shouts of joy! (repeat 3 times)
G...A D (last time:) joy!
