Israel Songtext
von Jonathan Settel

How much love, how much depth, and how much faith
You have given without question, you are His
Through the pages of your history
Our hands are stained with blood, Yisrael

For from you came our gift, our gift of life
And from your arms came our Messiah evermore
In our heart is gratitude
And we bless you, chosen ones, Yisrael

No turning back, no turning back
The shadows, the shadows of the past
Together we will live as one
The she-wolf and the lamb
It′s the time, the time to favor Zion
To love her as He does
To cease the crying rain for Him
The glory of our King


How much shame do we carry, how much blame
We've inflicted on your people, Jerusalem
Now we ask you to forgive us
As we seek to bless your heart, Yisrael

The past is gone, your affliction has become
The words of Ruth, "your people shall be mine"
We are here to share His love for you
Where you go, we go too, Yisrael

No turning back, no turning back
The shadows, the shadows of the past
Together we will live as one
The she-wolf and the lamb
It′s the time, the time to favor Zion
To love her as He does
To cease the crying rain for Him
The glory of our King

How much love, how much depth, and how much faith
You have given without question, you are His
Through the pages of your history
Our hands are stained with blood, Yisrael


No turning back, no turning back
The shadows, the shadows of the past
Together we will live as one
The she-wolf and the lamb
It's the time, the time to favor Zion
To love her as He does
To cease the crying rain for Him
The glory of our King

And the Redeemer will come to Zion
And to those who turn from transgression in Jacob
Declares the Lord
For if their rejection be the reconciliation of the world
What will their acceptance be but life?
Life from the dead
