Deliver Us |
| Our enemy, our captor is no pharaoh on the Nile |
| Our toil is neither mud nor brick nor sand |
| Our ankles bear no calluses from chains, yet Lord, we’re bound |
| Imprisoned here, we dwell in our own land |
| Deliver us, deliver us |
| Oh Yahweh, hear our cry |
| And gather us beneath your wings tonight |
| Our sins they are more numerous than all the lambs we slay |
| Our shackles they were made with our own hands |
| Our toil is our atonement and our freedom yours to give |
| So Yahweh, break this silence if you can |
| 'Jerusalem, Jerusalem |
| How often I have longed |
| To gather you beneath my gentle wings' |
