New beginnings
Blessings flow
Genesis 48
Manasseh and Ephraim grow
Two sons from Joseph's reign
Promised land
An inheritance to claim
Manasseh
The firstborn
Strength and might
Ephraim
The younger
Blessed in God's sight
Jacob blessed them both
With love profound
Inheritors of Canaan's holy ground
In God's embrace
We find our place
He leads us with grace
With every step we take
Through every trial and stormy night
We rise
We fight
In heaven's embrace we find our delight
