Zion, herald of good news,
go up on a high mountain.(A)
Jerusalem, herald of good news,(B)
raise your voice loudly.
Raise it, do not be afraid!
Say to the cities of Judah,
“Here is your God!”(C)
10 See, the Lord God comes with strength,
and His power establishes His rule.(D)
His reward is with Him,(E)
and His gifts accompany Him.
11 He protects His flock like a shepherd;(F)
He gathers the lambs in His arms
and carries them in the fold of His garment.
He gently leads those that are nursing.

Here is Your God

“Climb up a high mountain,
    you messenger of good news to Zion!
Lift up your voice with strength,
    you messenger to Jerusalem!
Lift it up!
    Don’t be afraid!
Say to the towns of Judah,
    ‘Here is your God!’
10 Look! The Lord God comes with strength,
    and his arm[a] rules for him.
Look! His reward is with him,
    and his payment accompanies him.
11 Like a shepherd, he tends his flock.
    He gathers the lambs in his arms,
carries them close to his heart,
    and gently leads the mother sheep.”
