Amaj9          Esus2/4             Esus2
40 years, we roamed, the desert, and lived in tents
Amaj9        Esus2/4                            Esus2
Because, we would not take, the Promised Land
Esus4           Amaj9          Esus4              Esus2/4
Yet Lord, Yahovah, You rained manna for us to eat
Amaj9           Esus4                 Esus2/4
And kept, our clothes, from decay

Amaj9         Esus4               Esus2/4 Esus4                            A
The time, of roaming, ended, and we renewed, Your covenant
C#5            Amaj9                              Esus4                       Esus2/4
We took the Promised Land, and drove out, our enemies
C#5                   Amaj9                  Esus4                               Esus2/4
You settled, us in houses, and wine was ours, to drink again

Amaj9                           Esus2/4         Esus2
You prospered us, yet we let, our enemies and sin, take our hearts
Amaj9                          Esus2/4                  Esus2
So You scattered, and exiled us, around the world
Amaj9                   C#5                      Esus4on7 Aadd9
Yet in our sin, You planned, renewal, with a New Covenant

Amaj9      Esus4                           A
Peoples, rend your hearts; Return to the Lord
Amaj9                          Esus4              A
Let roaming end, and renew covenant with Him
Amaj9                              C#5                    Aadd9
The New Covenant, He planned, to restore us with
Amaj9                         C#5                  Esus4on7         Esus2/4
Before we went, to Babylon, and since, creation

Amaj9                          Esus4                   C#5                                    Aadd9
Like the miracle, of Hanukkah, Your New Covenant, rededicates us
Amaj9                  C#5                             Aadd9
And rebirths, our whole being, as new temples to You
Amaj9                               Esus4on7
Washed and reborn, with Your Holy Spirit
C#5              Esus4                 Amaj9                    A
To make, one people, united by You, as the Son

Amaj9          Esus4        Amaj9             A
Mashiach Yeshua, Immanuel, Savior and King
C#5                               Esus4on7               Aadd9
Your great mercy, and salvation, reign!
Esus4                 Amaj9                                             Esus4                     Amaj9
You keep us through shadow and death; You supply us, with life in full
C#5                  Aadd9              Esus4on7                            Esus4                 A
Your grace, and power, will renew us again, for all time, on the last day!

Amaj9    Esus2/4           Esus4                          A
Peoples, remember, how God taught, through Moses
Amaj9           Esus2/4      Amaj9                         Esus2/4
The Lord, Yahovah, does not change; His ways, are forever
Amaj9             Esus4                        Esus2/4
Father Yah, give us wisdom, to see what sin is
Amaj9      Esus4             C#5                               Esus4on7                   Aadd9
Call us, to watch, over our families, and each other, again

Amaj9        Esus4                               Esus2/4    Esus4on7
Help us, drive the darkness, of sins, out of our lands
C#5            Esus4                  A
That we, may become, New Jerusalem
C#5                Esus4on7     Aadd9        A

And reign, with you, forever, on the last day!

Aadd9 A

Forever, on the last day!
