Lyrics:


One by one we are bound together
Separate yet whole, a community
Linked, sons and daughters forever
A painted portrait of unity

Echad – One from many
Kulanu k’echad

A joining of souls, a common goal
Jew & Gentile formed to band
Shared identity, parts made whole
One symphony conducted by His hand

Echad – One from many
Kulanu k’echad
All of us as one together
Kulanu k’echad
