"A day is coming" when Jerusalem will behold the Son of Man and weep for Him like one mourns a firstborn Son. This gorgeous, long-awaited moment will be marked with very human grief—and relief. Like messy weeping relief, and the City of the Great King will sing: "Blessed is He! Blessed is He who comes in the name of the LORD!"
But her song is not the first; in fact, it's His:
"The LORD your God is in your midst, a mighty One who will save;
He will rejoice over you with gladness;
He will quiet you with His love;
He will exult over you with loud singing."
David gives us a glimpse into this song of triumph in ultimate deliverance—before Absalom, before Bathsheba, before the crown.
