A PRAYER FOR THE RECOVERED SAINTS IN VIETNAM-
Amos 9:11-15 (A. S. V.)-
In that day will I raise up the tabernacle of David that is fallen, and close up the breaches thereof; and I will raise up its ruins, and I will build it as in the days of old; that they may possess the remnant of Edom, and all the nations that are called by my name, saith Jehovah that doeth this. Behold, the days come, saith Jehovah, that the plowman shall overtake the reaper, and the treader of grapes him that soweth seed; and the mountains shall drop sweet wine, and all the hills shall melt. And I will bring back the captivity of my people Israel, and they shall build the waste cities, and inhabit them; and they shall plant vineyards, and drink the wine thereof; they shall also make gardens, and eat the fruit of them. And I will plant them upon their land, and they shall no more be plucked up out of their land which I have given them, saith Jehovah thy God.
-
O Lord, rebuild the house of God,
The tents collapsed, the walls fell;
Ruined scene, please restore well,
Rebuild us as if the original one.
.
May we restore a one newer,
Exiting the religious system of power,
The dry meetings were empty,
Adoring one human being priority.
.
For ploughman follows the heels of reaper,
He sower before those who thrash grapes;
All mounds melted into sweet wine,
Mountains are oozed full of nectar.
.
May Thou switch fortune of saints,
We wish rebuilt meetings ruined,
The vine grower will drink new wine,
The gardener ate the ripe fruit.
.
Lord, plant us in Christ practically,
Don't pluck from reality of Good Land,
Please stop the system high authority,
Human power oppression by evil hand.
.
From forty years house restored,
Now becoming one Babel revived,
Have mercy on the slaved saints,
Restoration of a spiritual one lived.
.
Lord, Thou promised this to people Israel,
I would like for Vietnam to apply,
Our ruined scene would soon removed,
Glorious resurrection scene clearly.
