Lyrics:

Antiphon: Yahweh's love will last forever,
his faithfulness till the end of time.
Yahweh is a loving God.
Yahweh, the faithful one.

1. Have no fear, for I am with you;
I will be your shield.
Go now and leave your homeland,
for I will give you a home.

2. You shall be my chosen people,
and I will be your God.
I will bless your name forever
and keep you from all harm.

3. Look up and see the heavens
and count the stars if you can.
Your name will be even greater,
greater than all these stars.

4. See now the land before you,
rich with food and rain.
No longer must you wander,
for this will be your home.
