I enjoyed Psalm 80 with this hymn, particularly with verse 4. In three verses, v.3, v.7 and v. 9 it says: "O God, restore us; And cause your face to shine, and we will be saved.
O God of hosts, restore us; And cause Your face to shine, and we will be saved.
O Jehovah God of hosts, restore us; Cause your face to shine and we will be saved." Let us call on Him and allow ourselves to be shined on by Him to remain in His love and glory!
