Abram, the Father of Our Faith

Abram once dwelt in Marduk's slough

In the land of the Chaldee

Till Jah said "Get thee from thy house

That with you I may be.

I shall give thee many a son

In the land that I show

Toward the setting of the sun

Is the way you must go."

Through desert sands and foreign lands

He wandered to and fro

Believing in God's promised plans

His wonders to forth show.

Many years in tents he did live

A stranger with no claim

Not seeing yet what God would give

Still trusting in His name.

(Romans 4:11, Hebrews 11:8-10, 13-16).
