Yet even now, says the Lord,
Return to me with all your heart, (place hands over heart)
With fasting, (hold belly)  

with weeping, (mimic tears on your cheek with finger) 

and with mourning; (wipe the side of your face, mimicking a veil)
Rend your hearts (make a ripping motion on your chest)

and not your clothing.
Return to the Lord, your God, (sweep hands upward)
for he is gracious and merciful, (swoop hands out above head)
slow to anger, and abounding in steadfast love, (place hands at heart)
and relents from punishing.(shake finger "no")
Who knows whether he will not turn and relent, (shrug shoulders)
and leave a blessing behind him,(turn and blow a kiss behind you)
a grain-offering (scoop hands outward from belly)

and a drink-offering (cup hands and extend out from mouth)
for the Lord, your God?(make a cross over your heart with your finger)

Joel 2: 12-14
