The Rewards of Coming Back to the Lord

“Come, let’s go back to the Lord.
    He hurt us, but he will heal us.
    He wounded us, but he will put bandages on us.
After two days he will bring us back to life.
    He will raise us up on the third day.
    Then we can live near him.
Let’s learn about the Lord.
    Let’s try very hard to know him.
We know he is coming,
    just as we know the dawn is coming.
He will come to us like the rain,
    like the spring rain that waters the ground.”
