Song Title: Saints of the Old Testament

Description:

This song, Saints of the Old Testament, is a prayerful and reverent tribute to the holy men and women of the Old Testament, recognizing their roles in salvation history. It draws from the Catholic litany of Old Testament saints and reflects on our shared roots with the Jewish people. As Catholics, we honor these figures for their faith, perseverance, and profound connection to God, which laid the foundation for the coming of Christ.

In celebrating the lives of saints like Abraham, Sarah, Moses, Ruth, and David, this song reminds us of the rich Jewish heritage that is integral to our faith. The melody and lyrics are inspired by Jewish liturgical music, combining ancient themes with modern reverence. By incorporating Jewish musical elements, we reflect the beauty and depth of our shared history, making this song a fitting homage to the saints who lived in the time before Christ.

This song is a reminder that as Catholics, we are deeply connected to the Old Testament saints and the covenantal relationship between God and His chosen people. Through their stories, we see God’s promise fulfilled in Christ, and we are invited to continue their legacy of faith.

Full Lyrics:

(Verse 1)
God of Abraham, the Mighty One,
You called Your people, the journey begun.
Noah sailed upon the stormy seas,
Faith in You, a heart to please.

(Chorus)
Saints of the Old, before our time,
In faith and hope, they saw the signs.
Pray for us, and guide our way,
Lead us to the Lord, we pray.

(Verse 2)
Sarah laughed, but trusted still,
Isaac blessed on Heaven’s will.
Jacob wrestled, Joseph dreamed,
In their hearts, Your love redeemed.

(Chorus)
Saints of the Old, before our time,
In faith and hope, they saw the signs.
Pray for us, and guide our way,
Lead us to the Lord, we pray.

(Bridge)
Moses led with staff in hand,
Joshua marched to the Promised Land.
David sang, his heart aflame,
With faith that called upon Your name.

(Verse 3)
Deborah rose in courage strong,
Ruth with love did right the wrong.
Prophets spoke Your word so true,
Saints of old, we look to You.

(Chorus)
Saints of the Old, before our time,
In faith and hope, they saw the signs.
Pray for us, and guide our way,
Lead us to the Lord, we pray.

(Outro)
Saints of the Old Testament, hear our call,
Pray for us now, and for us all.
In faith and hope, we’ll stand strong,
As we join your heavenly song.
