“You Are Our Father”

15 (A)Look down from heaven and see from Your holy and glorious (B)habitation;
Where are Your (C)zeal and Your mighty deeds?
The (D)stirrings of Your heart and Your compassion are restrained toward me.
16 For You are our (E)Father, though (F)Abraham does not know us
And Israel does not recognize us.
You, O Lord, are our Father,
Our (G)Redeemer from of old is Your name.
17 Why, O Lord, do You (H)cause us to stray from Your ways
And (I)harden our heart from fearing You?
(J)Return for the sake of Your servants, the tribes of Your heritage.

17 Why, Lord, do you make us wander(I) from your ways
    and harden our hearts(J) so we do not revere(K) you?
Return(L) for the sake of your servants,
    the tribes that are your inheritance.(M)
