Lyics

ALTHOUGH the fig tree, 
although the fig tree shall not blossom, 
neither shall fruit be in the vine, 
the labor of the olive shall fall, 
and the fields shall yield no meat; 
the flocks shall be cut off from the fold, 
and there will be no herd in the stall; 
yet will I rejoice in the Lord-
yet will I rejoice in the Lord-
yet will I rejoice, 
will rejoice in the Lord, 
I will joy in the God of my salvation-
I will joy, I will joy, 
I will joy in the God of my salvation-
of my salvation!
