Hymn 270<br>
[[P.M.]]<br>
1. Children of Zion, awake from your sadness,<br>
For soon all your foes shall oppress you no more;<br>
Bright on your hills dawns the day star of gladness;<br>
Arise! for the night of your sorrow's near o'er.<br>
Children of Zion, awake from your sadness,<br>
For soon all your foes shall oppress you no more.

2. Strong are your foes, but His arm will subdue them,<br>
And scatter their armies to regions afar;<br>
They'll flee like the chaff from the scourge that pursues them;<br>
Vain is their strength and their chariots of war.<br>
Children of Zion, awake from your sadness,<br>
For soon all your foes shall oppress you no more.

3. Children of Zion, his power will save you,<br>
O loudly extol it o'er land and the sea,<br>
Shout! for the foe'll be destroyed that enslaved you,<br>
The oppressor will vanish and Zion be free.<br>
Children of Zion, awake from your sadness,<br>
For soon, all your foes shall oppress you no more,<br>
Shall oppress you no more, - no more.
