Lyrics
Avraham he plunged his hands
into the soil at Be’er Sheva
and he planted there a tamarisk tree
that would never fail to bloom
This evergreen tree symbolised the heart -
the character - of one whom Avraham
now called upon
You’re the everlasting God
A morning that will always come
Your kingdom it goes on and on
God he is the El Olam
Even in winter you will green
Today, tomorrow, you’re the same
The God of space, the Lord of time
You are the El Olam
Moshe gazed at multitudes
Forty years through Sinai’s dunes
And he penned a song so they’d recall
who their help had always been
He who preceded mountains being born
had been a dwelling place throughout
their generations
You’re the everlasting God
A morning that will always come
Your kingdom it goes on and on
God he is the El Olam
Even in winter you will green
Today, tomorrow, you’re the same
The God of space, the Lord of time
You are the El Olam
God he spoke through Malachi: “Return to me.”
But people cried: “How do we return?”
So God replied: “I am who I’ve always been”
Pay workers fair, defend the foreigner
Care for the widows, fatherless
Love justice and mercy
For I the Lord I have not changed
I’m who I’ve always been
You’re the everlasting God
A morning that will always come
Your kingdom it goes on and on
God he is the El Olam
Even in winter you will green
Today, tomorrow, you’re the same
The God of space, the Lord of time
You are the El Olam
You’re the everlasting God
A morning that will always come
Your kingdom it goes on and on
God he is the El Olam
Even in winter you will green
Today, tomorrow, you’re the same
The God of space, the Lord of time
You are the El Olam
