True Born Sons of Levi Annotated

We are the true born son of God
We are the root and branch of David
The bright and glorious morning star

[Verse 2]
When Joshua and I crossed the Jordan
Two leaves of corn we lifted high
To the priest and the grand-master
We bore the Ark of God and Son

[Verse 3]

[Verse 5]
We are the true born sons of Levi
We are the true born son of God
We are the roots and the branch of David
The bright and glorious morning star
