Zion’s Captives Restored

1A song of high degrees. When God shall cause them of Sion that were led into captiuitie for to returne: we shalbe as men that dreamed.

2Then shall our mouth be filled with a laughter: and our tongue with a ioyfull noyse. (126:3) Then shall suche as be amongst the Heathen say: God hath brought great thinges to passe, that he myght do for them.

3(126:4) God hath brought great thinges to passe for vs: we be made merie.

4(126:5) Make vs O God that be led into captiuitie: for to returne as riuers into the south.

5(126:6) They that sowe in teares: shall reape in ioy.

6(126:7) He that goeth foorth on his way, and wepyng beareth pretious seede: shall doubtlesse returning, come againe with a ioyfull noyse, bryngyng his sheaues with hym.
