For We Are Thy People

For we are thy people, and thou art our God;

We are thy children and thou our father.

We are thy servants, and thou art our master;

We are thy congregation and thou our portion.

We are thine inheritance, thou our lot;

We are thy flock, thou our shepherd.

We are thy vineyard, and thou art our keeper;

We are thy work, and thou our creator.

We are thy faithful one: thou art our beloved;

We are thy chosen: thou art the Lord our God.

We are thy subjects, thou our King;

We are thine acknowledged people, thou our acknowledged Lord.
