Chorus:
                 
El Shaddai, El Shaddai,
               
El Elyonna Adonai,
                           
age to age you're still the same,
                
by the power of the name.
                 
El Shaddai, El Shaddai,
             
erkamkana Adonai,
                      /  
we will praise and lift you high,
    
El Shaddai.


Verse 1:
                                 
Through your love and through the ram,
                         
you saved the son of Abraham,
                         
through the power of your hand
                        
you turned the sea into dry land.
                      
To the outcast on her knees
                     
you were the God who really sees,
                                          
and by your might you set your children free.


Verse 2:
                              
Through the years you made it clear
                            
that the time of Christ was near,
                          
though the people couldn't see
                 
what Messiah ought to be.
                              
Though your Word contained the plan,
                          
they just could not understand,
                                                   
your most awesome work was done in the frailty of your Son
