The Secret of Survivors

No other people has endured the constant persecution
     3,330 years of constant suffering
   From the Egyptian Pharaohs' enslavement and buffeting
     down through 20th and 21st century executions

   Yet we Jews are still here, still strong in our faith
     Where are the Egyptians with their pyramids tall
   The Babylonians and Romans, not to mention Gaul
     We've outlasted them somehow, survived them all

   Our secret is the Torah, given at Sinai to Moses
     We chose Him, so He chose us ~ 
                                 over those who oppose us
