Lyrics
Although the fig tree shall not blossom
Despite the fig tree not bearing fruit
And there'll be no grapes on the vine
No grapes will be found on the vine
And although the Olive crop may fail
Even if the Olive crop fails
And the corn fields produce no food
And the corn fields yield no food
And although there may be no sheep
Even if there are no sheep in the pen
Left in the pen
No sheep left in the pen
And there be no herd in the stalls
No herd in the stalls
Yet I will rejoice in the Lord
Nevertheless, I will find joy in the Lord
I will rejoice in God my Saviour
Rejoicing in God, my Saviour
The Sovereign Lord, my God is my strength
Acknowledging the Sovereign Lord as my strength
He makes my feet like those of a dear
God makes my feet sure-footed like a deer's
He will help me to walk
He assists me in walking
Steadfastly on the heights
Steadfastly on elevated places
That's why I will be joyful in my Lord
This is why I will find joy in the Lord
Why I'll rejoice in God my Saviour
And rejoice in God, my Saviour
For the music leader
Directed to the music leader
With sounding strings
With the accompaniment of sounding strings
