about

Based upon Isaiah 1
A song about striving for social justice

lyrics

Do right by the weak, who can't fight any more
And I'll restore your judges, as in days of yore;
Help the orphan, the widow and the stranger at your door
And I'll restore your judges and advisors like before

Only then will you be called the "Town of Justice"
for (you know) injustice I abhor.
Yes then will you be called the "Town of Justice"
the "Faithful City" I adore!

Zion in justice you shall find redemption,
as all return in truth to me!
Zion, Zion find your salvation --
with me in peace and harmony!

As your judges I restore
As in love -- I thee restore

Hope you enjoy the English or Hebrew versions, and wish you well. Thanks for listening! ... more
