Give us gladness in proportion to our former misery!
Replace the evil years with good.
Let us, your servants, see you work again;
let our children see your glory.
And may the LORD our God show us his approval
and make our efforts successful.
Yes, make our efforts successful!
Give us gladness in proportion to our former misery! Replace the evil years with good.
