inhabitant in Jerusalem,
(hear your own name here: i.e., O Sally)
you will weep no longer.
He will surely be gracious to you
at the sound of your cry;
when He hears it,
He will answer you.
Although the Lord
has given you
bread of privation
and water of oppression,
He,
Your Teacher
will no longer hide Himself,
but your eyes will behold your Teacher.
Your ears will hear a word behind you,
"This is the way,
walk in it,"
whenever you turn
to the right or to the left."
(Isaiah 30:21)
O God, we do not know the way,
but You do.
You are our Teacher
and you are showing us the way.
Help us to behold You
and hear Your voice
and walk in Your way.
Today.
Thank You, Lord, for these wonders of Your love:
