On This Day

On this day the desert will bloom with life
And the hills ring out with joyful song.
On this day the rivers will sing once more,
For the Lord will ransom His people.

On this day the weak will be made strong;
The frightened filled with courage.
On this day your hearts will exult to hear;
Our God will come to save us,
Our God will come to save us.

On this day His justice will flourish
And fullness of peace forevermore.
On this day the mountains will echo hope,
For the Lord will come to save His people.

On this day the weak will be made strong;
The frightened filled with courage.
On this day your hearts will exult to hear:
Our God will come to save us,
Our God will come to save us.

On this day, O rise up, Jerusalem
And receive the joy that comes to you.
For the clouds will rain down the Righteous One,
And the earth will bring forth a Savior.
