Houses Have Fallen

© 2001, Carl Thomas Gladstone

Oh, how our houses have fallen.
Oh, how our hearts are in ruin.
Remember the nations called by your name.
Rebuild us as in the days of old.

Surely the time is coming
When we will be restored.
You’ll plant us all in Zion;
For this we lift our praise, oh Lord.

Oh, how abundant the harvest!
Oh, how the gardens bloom!
Sweet wine flows from the mountains.
Rebuild us as in the days of old.
