Return, my people, Israel, with penitential tear;
just as the prophet did foretell the advent of Emmanuel,
God's gift to earth is near!
God's gift to earth is near!
Fear not, beloved, hearken now: our God has
done great things!
You vindication shall pour down like rain upon the barren ground,
glad tidings to you bring,
glad tidings to you bring.
Then to the faithful of the earth the call
of God rings clear:
"Return, my people, claim your worth, preparing for your
Savior's birth;
my gift to you is near,
my gift to you is near."
