And there she will sing as in the days of her youth
As in the days she came out of Egypt
So will I draw her, I will lead her into the dessert
I will speak to her gently, I will open a door of hope
I will betroth you, And act out of compassion
I will always be faithful and you will acknowledge the Lord
