After Zephaniah 3:14-20
Forget the humiliation,
forget the shame.
The Lord is singing
over you.
He takes away
the judgments
against you.
He wipes away
the enemies
arrayed against
you. He gathers
the weak, the outcast,
the oppressed
in his arms,
transforming shame
into praise.
He gathers us in,
he exalts over us,
he sings our renown,
he sings our praise.
