Genesis 32 Lyrics

[Chorus]
Baruch Ata / Adonai Eloheinu / melech ha'olam / Ki-ra'iti Elohim panim el panim vatinatsel nafshi //

[Translation]
(Blessed are You / Lord our God / Ruler of the Universe / for I have seen God face to face and yet my life is spared //)

[Verse 1]
In arrogance Jacob cheated Esau of his inheritance / and was on the run from his older brother ever since / forced to run and hide /
He sent his family and team across the stream while camping on the other side / under a starry sky / tension hung in the air / Jacob was in despair as he uttered a prayer / within his heart feeling a range of emotions / he looked up and out of the darkness saw a Stranger approach him / what Jacob was facing was an amazing visitation but fear for his life lead to a brazen altercation / at first he thought it was Esau / until he got close by / and realized it was a Messenger from on high // the shoving match wouldn't pass / in fact it lasted long / kept dragging on until the crack of dawn / as Jacob held on with a grip the Stranger tapped on his hip / and knocked it out of socket causing him to walk with a limp / aching and bruised with a leg that was moved / seized with anger / dazed and confused / Jacob refused / to release the Stranger / the Man said It's daybreak / let me go / Jacob responded / unless you bless me no / as Jacob stood still on the plains of Peniel / the Stranger revealed / the change of his name to Israel / but Jacob had a question right before the Stranger left him / what is your name? / the Man said / why do you ask / then He blessed him / it was a time of testing / yet it left an impression / and it was more than the fact that Jacob received his blessing / frightened and scared at this time he declared / I have seen the living God yet my life has been spared //

[Translation of final Hebrew singing verse]
Lord God of Israel / who is like you oh God / in heaven above or in the earth below? / but will You truly dwell on earth? / the heavens / even the highest heavens cannot contain You //
