1 LORD thou hast been favourable unto thy land thou hast brought back the captivity of Jacob ⚑

2 Thou hast forgiven the iniquity of thy people thou hast covered all their sin Selah ⚑

3 Thou hast taken away all thy wrath thou hast turned thyself from the fierceness of thine anger ⚑

4 Turn us O God of our salvation and cause thine anger toward us to cease ⚑

5 Wilt thou be angry with us for ever wilt thou draw out thine anger to all generations ⚑

6 Wilt thou not revive us again that thy people may rejoice in thee ⚑

7 Shew us thy mercy O LORD and grant us thy salvation ⚑

8 I will hear what God the LORD will speak for he will speak peace unto his people and to his saints but let them not turn again to folly ⚑

9 Surely his salvation is nigh them that fear him that glory may dwell in our land ⚑

10 Mercy and truth are met together righteousness and peace have kissed each other ⚑

11 Truth shall spring out of the earth and righteousness shall look down from heaven ⚑

12 Yea the LORD shall give that which is good and our land shall yield her increase ⚑

13 Righteousness shall go before him and shall set us in the way of his steps ⚑
