¶ Verse 1
Do you see the Hebrew captive kneeling,
At morning, noon and night, to pray?
In his chamber he remembers Zion,
Though in exile far away.
¶ Refrain
Are your windows open toward Jerusalem,
Though as captives here, a "little while" we stay?
For the coming of the King in His glory
Are you watching day by day?
(Repeat refrain)
¶ Verse 2
Do not fear to tread the fiery furnace,
Nor shrink the lion's den to share;
For the God of Daniel will deliver,
He will send His angel there.
(Repeat refrain)
¶ Verse 3
Children of the living God, take courage,
Your great deliverance sweetly sing.
Set your faces toward the hill of Zion,
Thence to hail your coming King.
(Repeat refrain)
