Lyrics
Jacob and Esau, twin brothers from birth
Their mother, Rebecca, knew their worth.
Esau, the firstborn, had the birthright,
But Jacob's ambition sparked a fight.
Even before birth, they struggled and kicked,
’Cause of their fighting, their mother was sick.
The rivalry only grew more and more
Their bond weakened, always at war!
Brothers and sisters, hear this song,
Learn to love and get along!
And when you’ll argue, remember this:
Years later, it won't matter!
Try to show kindness and love always,
For that's the best way to spend your days.
Brothers and sisters, walk together with the Lord!
Esau, the first one, was a hunterman
Jacob, the younger, had a cunning plan...
For birthright and blessing, he aimed to cheat
Wearing some goat skin for his plan to deceit!
Jacob pretended to be Esau that day,
Deceiving his father in a sly way.
Their family was shattered, divided in two.
Jacob fled far with no clue what to do.
Brothers and sisters, hear this song,
Learn to love and get along!
And when you’ll argue, remember this:
Years later, it won't matter!
Try to show kindness and love always,
For that's the best way to spend your days.
Brothers and sisters, walk together with the Lord!
Years had passed and Jacob grew old,
He returned with a story to be told.
He met with Esau, who was no longer mad.
Forgiveness was given, each of them was glad!
Esau embraced him with much joy and love.
Their bond was restored, so no need to shove!
They looked at the past with tears in their eyes,
Counting the cost of their long spite and lies.
Brothers and sisters, hear this song,
Learn to love and get along!
And when you’ll argue, remember this:
Years later, it won't matter!
Try to show kindness and love always,
For that's the best way to spend your days.
Brothers and sisters, walk together with the Lord!
My dear children, you are all brothers and sisters in the Lord, and I’ve told you our family story.
Don’t forget this: Love one another, and forgive each other as God himself forgives us.
Remember my song: Years later, most of it won't matter.
Try to show kindness and love always,
For that's the best way to spend your days.
Brothers and sisters, walk together with the Lord!
