Sitting in the hot dessert sun
You've been told you'd be on the run
Down to egypt to pharaoh's town
To Rome and Spain and many other lands
But you opened your doors to tired men
To lonely passersby and angels from heaven
Your kindness and your care were known far and wide
Father of a nation your soul is alive

Avraham are we the children that you dreamed of?
Are we the shining stars you saw at night?
You know its true, we still call you avinu
Our father our pride we've got your soul inside, take us home

You've been through every test, now look
A small shul in the mid west
A child was born just the other day, and
All those gathered there heard his mother say
Although its been three thousand years
And we've been fighting back all the tears
One man's lullaby a nation will survive
Father of our people your dream is alive

Avraham are we the children that you dreamed of?
Are we the shining stars you saw at night?
You know its true, we still call you avinu
Our father our pride we've got your soul inside, take us home

Your courage and your might, kept the pharaohs up at night
No hand could hold you, no stranger would forget you

Avraham yes we're the children that you dreamed of
And we're the shining stars you saw at night
You know its true, it's why we call you avinu
Our father our pride we've got your soul inside, take us home
