| Joseph Friedlander, comp. The Standard Book of Jewish Verse. 1917. | | | | O Israel | | By Robert Loveman |
| | | O ISRAEL, thy glory gleamed | |
| Through long ages long ago; | |
| O Israel, a David dreamed | |
| Within thy tents of snow; | |
| Thy warriors wise, and brave, and good, | 5 |
| Thy women queens of womanhood, | |
| A pillared cloud, and manna food, | |
| O Israel, sweet Israel. | |
| |
| O Israel, again I see | |
| Thy chariot in the sky! | 10 |
| The seed of Abraham shall be | |
| Through all eternity; | |
| Our fathers’ faith, our fathers’ God, | |
| The paths of peace wherein they trod, | |
| With love, with truth, thy soul be shod, | 15 |
| O Israel, sweet Israel. | | | | |
