Full Lyrics
REFRAIN
The vineyard of the Lord of hosts is the house of Israel
VERSE 1
You brought a vine out of Egypt
You drove out the nations and planted it
It stretched out its branches to the sea
to the river it stretched out its shoots.
VERSE 2
Then why have you broken down its walls?
It is pluck by all who pass by the way
It is ravaged by the boar of the forest
devoured by the beasts of the field.
VERSE 3
God of host turn again we implore
Look down from h'ven & see this vine protect it
the vine your right hand has planted
the son of man you have claimed for yourself
VERSE 4
And we shall never forsake you again
give us life that we may call upon your name
O Lord God of hosts bring us back
let your face shine forth and we shall be saved
