1. There in old Chaldea, product of man's fall,
  God appeared to Abram��called him from it all.
  "Get thee from thy country, from thy father's clan,
  Get thee from thy kindred to another land."
(Chorus:)
  Our Lord God Jehovah called a corporate man,
  One that would express Him and fulfill His plan.
2. Through the Lord's infusion, Abraham became
  Father of the faithful��life had changed His name.
  Though the Lord's appearing, brought him to the land,
  Still he needed Isaac to fulfill God's plan.
3. Isaac from his father did inherit all:
  Sonship's full enjoyment, blessing of God's call.
  Though all things receiving, incomplete was he;
  Lacking transformation and maturity.
(Chorus:)
  Our Lord God Jehovah called a corporate man,
  One that would express Him and fulfill His plan.
4. In his father's footsteps, Jacob then became
  Prince of God, a wrestler, Israel his name;
  By the Spirit's dealing, fully grown, he reigned;
  O'er the earth, through Joseph, ruling pow'r obtained.
5. Thus do Jacob, Isaac, Abraham portray
  Path that we, God's called ones, must walk in today:
  Members of the Body, as a corporate man,
  We complete His calling and fulfill His plan.
(Chorus:)
  Our Lord God Jehovah called a corporate man,
  One that would express Him and fulfill His plan.
