The Sacred Promise – v3

To His children, for all generations
the sacred promise, the covenant
down to this day, all of us covered,
all of us under the blood;
All of us the children of Abraham,
of David, the sheep, the children of God

Brothers, sisters, grafted in,
into the flock, the sheepfold,
with our brother, with Christ;
Our estrangement healed
by the everlasting love
of our Father, our God.
