Revive Us Again

85 To the choirmaster. A Psalm of nthe Sons of Korah.

1  Lord, you were ofavorable to your land;

you prestored the fortunes of Jacob.

2  You qforgave the iniquity of your people;

you qcovered all their sin. Selah

3  You withdrew all your wrath;

you rturned from your hot anger.

4  sRestore us again, O God of our salvation,

and put away your indignation toward us!

5  tWill you be angry with us forever?

Will you prolong your anger to all generations?

6  Will you not urevive us again,

that your people may vrejoice in you?

7  Show us your steadfast love, O Lord,

and grant us your salvation.

8  wLet me hear what God the Lord will speak,

for he will xspeak peace to his people, to his ysaints;

but let them not zturn back to afolly.

9  Surely his bsalvation is near to those who fear him,

that cglory may dwell in our land.

10  dSteadfast love and faithfulness meet;

erighteousness and peace kiss each other.

11  Faithfulness springs up from the ground,

and righteousness looks down from the sky.

12  Yes, fthe Lord will give what is good,

and our land gwill yield its increase.

13  hRighteousness will go before him

and make his footsteps a way.
