Like a wayward child, I went my own way.
But you Lord, you were faithful and full of love and forgiveness.
You disciplined me for a time.
My heart sings for joy at your presence.
Your cover me and were patient with me.
Your faithfulness and love will follow me all of my days.

Israel is like the wayward child,
You have raised her up as a sign to the nations.
She will not lament for long.
Your love is forever enduring and though she was a wayward child,
You raised her as a sign to the nations.
Praise the Lord, bow down all you nations,
For when He comes He will come in justice & righteousness.
He will winnow with His winnowing fork,
He will separate the wheat from the chaff,
And He will judge the nations.
