WHEN THE RANSOMED OF THE LORD RETURN — A Lush Garden Will Replace Desert Wasteland

Speaker : Paul Naumann
Isaiah 35:6-7,10
Then the lame shall leap like a deer,
And the tongue of the dumb sing.
For waters shall burst forth in the wilderness,
And streams in the desert.
7 The parched ground shall become a pool,
And the thirsty land springs of water;
In the habitation of jackals, where each lay,
There shall be grass with reeds and rushes.
. . . 10 And the ransomed of the Lord shall return,
And come to Zion with singing,
With everlasting joy on their heads.
Hymn: TLH 660, st. 1,4 : I’m But a Stranger Here

1. I’m but a stranger here,
Heav’n is my home;
Earth is a desert drear,
Heav’n is my home.
Danger and sorrow stand
Round me on every hand;
Heav’n is my fatherland,
Heav’n is my home.

4. Therefore I murmur not,
Heav’n is my home;
Whate’er my earthly lot,
Heav’n is my home;
And I shall surely stand
There at my Lord’s right hand.
Heav’n is my fatherland,
Heav’n is my home.
