Poetry
The Cry of Zion
by Bayo Omoyiola, Jr
Don't be weary.
Wake up, O Strength of Zion.
Into your house, come
for we wait for you
even all of us of your house.
Come revive us.
Come give us strength
for we are weary.
Come give us drink
from your brook, for we thirst.
Come give us drink
from your spring of living water
that we may live.
For this we groan,
daily crying at your feet
looking unto you
that you may give us
that which we desire
Come enlarge our coast
that our bounds may be no more
and that our doors may be opened continually.
Blot out our secret faults from before us
for they weaken us,
giving us no strength.
Oh! that we may appear holy before you
and be filled with your Holy Spirit.
Come dwell in us, O Great Spirit.
Come into your house, O God
for we have prepared a house for you.
We have made a house available for you
that you may rule over us
and reign over us, your people as king.
Come as the rain,
fill our banks with your river.
Come as the dew
wet our habitations
with your mercies
Come, for we are thirsty;
Come, for this we groan;
We, children of Zion
awaiting your entry into Jerusalem
Come and rule over us as king.
