Passion for Praise: 'Sing with Joy!'

Wednesday, September 15, 2004

Sing with joy for Israel. Shout for the greatest of nations! Shout out with praise and joy: "Save your people, O Lord, the remnant of Israel!" For I will bring them from the north and from the distant corners of the earth. I will not forget the blind and lame, the expectant mothers and women in labor. A great company will return! Tears of joy will stream down their faces, and I will lead them home with great care. They will walk beside quiet streams and on smooth paths where they will not stumble.
