¶Liedtext

1. We are the sons and the daughters Of Sarah and Abraham, Journeying onward as they did, In search of the promised land. We are the children of promise, As countless as grains of sand, But aliens here and strangers, In search of the promised land. 2. We have been given a vision, Of justice for strong and weak, No more oppression and violence, And this is the land we seek. Call us on pilgrimage, seeking With all who have gone before Justice for all of God's children, And the end of greed and war. 3. Merciful God, you have called us To go from our settled ways, With our dreams of peace and safety, And to offer you our praise, Asking no freedom from danger, No privileges others lack; Only your presence among us To keep us from turning back. 4. Grant we may enter the country That is coming into view Where all our warfare is ended And everything is made new, That we may share with the prophets And sages, greatest and least, And with Abraham and Sarah, A place at the Lamb's high feast.
