Isaiah 63:15-17

International Children’s Bible

¹⁵ Lord, look down from the heavens and see.
    Look at us from your wonderful holy home in heaven.
Where is your strong love and power?
    Why are you keeping your love and mercy from us?
¹⁶ You are our father.
    Abraham doesn’t know we are his children.
    Israel doesn’t know who we are.
Lord, you are our father.
    You are called “the one who has always saved us.”
¹⁷ Lord, why are you making us wander from your ways?
    Why do you make us stubborn so that we don’t honor you?
For our sake come back to us.
    We are your servants, and we belong to you.
