Israel can you hear your father
Israel will you hold His hand
Israel will you open your heart
Israel please return to Him
Not too long ago in '48
God established the holy state
We came from ghettos and death camps
We survived the genocide
On the first day, we had a war
Had no rest, we're in for more
From that day up until now why has it not changed?
Israel can you hear your father
Israel will you hold His hand
Israel will you open your heart
Israel please return to Him
Such a tiny state, the size of Jersey
What's the big deal, they're going crazy
Want to take it over, tell us why
No justified reason that we should die
But if we just turn to the Son and read the Word, the war is won
In the end, yeah, Israel remains
And we will all know the King who reigns
Israel can you hear your father
Israel will you hold His hand
Israel will you open your heart
Israel please return to Him
In times of trouble, in times of pain
Open up the book, He's still the same
There's only one Creator, one God
His name is Yahweh, His son is Yeshua
He's the prophesied world's Messiah
They call upon His name from Africa to China
Even India, France, and Spain too
Have finally embraced the world's most famous Jew
Israel can you hear your father
Israel will you hold His hand
Israel will you open your heart
Israel please return to Him
