Lyics

Lo!  In the wilderness, sounds of rejoicing,

Joys greet the plains where no rivulet flows;

Forests shall flourish with beauty and gladness,

Deserts shall blossom and bloom like the rose.

Lebanon's glory in waste places springing,

Carmel and Sharon their excellence yeild;

Mountains and hills shall break forth into singing,

Plenty and freshness shall gladden the field.
