Moshe Rabeinu - Lipa Schmeltzer
Mona 4

(By request)

אין מיטן פיל עבודה קשה
האט זיך באקלערט דער פרעה רשע
מען דארף די אידן זינקן אין דערטרינקען אין דעם טייך אריין
ווייל א נביאות פון די שטערן
ס'דארף א קינד געבוירן ווערן
ער וועט אינז פירן ווייזן און אויסלייזן אידן פון דעם פח

ס'איז געווען א קינד אן אויפגעפאסטן
מ'האט אים באהאלטן אין א קאסטן
פעך און ליים פארשמירן זיך נישט פרירן

ווען פרעה'ס בתיה וויל גיין שווימן
האט זי א לאנגע האנד באקומען
זי האט זיך נישט געדארפט אנשטרענגען
אים צוריקברענגען לייכטן אויף דעם וועלט

און פון דעם קליינעם קאסטן האט געשיינט אן אורה מורא סחורה תורה
וואס עס האט נישט געזען קיינמאל
זאגן די שטערן זעער נאכאנאנד
דער קליינער פיינער שיינער ריינער וועט באלייכטן כלל ישראל

ער טוט די אידן וועקן
מ'טאר זיך ניט דערשרעקן
קיין שלענגן ווערט א שטעקן
ווייזט משה רבינו
ויאמינו בה' ובמשה עבדו

פרעה אידן שאט ער
ער ווערט אבער נישט פטור
מיר האבן דאך א פאטער
שיקט משה רבינו

אזעלכע צעקות

אידן ווי געשמאק איז דורך
משה רבינו
ויאמינו בה' ובמשה עבדו

רבינו אונזער פאסטאך
שוין צוריקקומען די דאסטאך
דער רועה צאן
וואו ביסטו שוין
אט אט הנה זה בא

וועסט אונז מיט אמונה האלטן
פונקט ווי געווען ביים ים סוף שפאלטן
געזען דיין צורה
געזונגען שירה
כי גאה גאה

זה קלי ואנוהו

ויאמינו בה' ובמשה עבדו

בקרוב וועט מען שוין דערלעבן
אן אורה תורה מער נישט מורא
פון דעם עול הגלות דא

און משה וועט א שיעור אונז געבן
תורה סחורה אויך דער בורא
לערנען אויך דער שיעור שעה נאך שעה

ס'איז קיינער נישט מגושם

Omar Dovid

(By request)

אמר דוד לפני הקדוש ברוך הוא
רבונו של עולם
שמעתי בני אדם שהיו אומרים
מתי ימות זקן זה
ויבא שלמה בנו ויבנה בית הבחירה
ונעלה לרגל ושמחתי

אמר לו הקדוש ברוך הוא
כי טוב יום בחצריך מאלף
טוב לי יום אחד שאתה עוסק בתורה לפני
מאלף עולות שעתיד שלמה בנך
להקריב לפני על גבי המזבח

Take The Time - Mordechai Ben David
The English Collection

(By request)

Listen and you'll learn my son
For you the world has just begun
Still before you know it
You may turn around and see
That life has passed you by

Hear and heed the things I say
Think about them every day
Make of every minute
What you see when you begin it
Or it passes by

Make the time for things that count
Cherish the friends that you find
Think three times, before you shout
Always remember to be kind

Listen close when children speak
Treasure the things theat they know
The toys and tears of younger years
Carry their wisdom when they go

Buddy, can you spare a dime
Sorry, but I ain't got time
Daddy can we study please
I'm sorry son but don't you see, I can't today

Little things that come and go
Slip away before we know
The handles on the clock advance
And we who beg for second chances must obey

Take the time to do things right
Always believe what you say
Ask yourself each morning and night
Who am I closer with today
Speak to Hashem with an open heart
There isn't a shoulder so wide
There's never been a better time to start
And nothing more foolish than your pride

Listen and you'll learn my son
For you the world has just begun
Still before you know it
You may turn around and see
That life has passed you by

Every moment is so dear
And time just doesn't stop to care
Swiftly as a shadow
In a moment as we turn around
It passes by..

So,Take the time to do things right
Always believe what you say
Ask yourself each morning and night
Who am I closer with today
Speak to Hashem with an open heart
There isn't a shoulder so wide
There's never been a better time to start
And nothing more foolish than your pride
Happy Days - Mordechai Ben David
The English Collection

(By request)

Do you stop and wonder
What’s going on
Cab you remember happy days
Where have they gone

Life goes so fast
Nothing seems to last
People feel the squeeze is on
It’s really a shame.

Can you hear the thunder
Do you feel the pain
So many tragedies, disasters
So insane

There seems to be no end
To this terrifying trend
And everyone you talk to
Feels the same.

(Chorus:)
But many happy days are coming now
So won't you please listen to me
We’ll all be singing, dancing, laughing
Everybody just you wait and see
Miracles amazing wonders
Like no one’s ever seen before
It’s finally that magic moment
We have all been waiting for.

All the senseless hating
Who knows why
When there is so much good to see
Shouldn’t we try

And rather than reject
Just admire and respect
Must we feel like strangers
When we really are one.

It’s so irritating
Like a thorny rose
A generation all confused
Where everything goes
Where right and wrong’s the same
Even sin has lost it’s shame
Perhaps the final chapter’s just begun.

(Chorus:)

Ther’s no denying
That the feeling’s low
You feel the preasure
Got the blues

What do you know
We seek a helping hand
It’s so hard to understand
How life can turn so vicious
So absurd and unfair.

We saw millions dying
We were left to cry
While all the nations of the world
Just turned an eye
Despite the raging tears
We have suffered all these years
Never we’ll surrender to despair.

(Chorus:)
Unity - Mordechai Ben David
The English Collection

(By request)

Like angels in the sky
In a garden full of glory
The galaxy so brilliantly related
Ultimately high
On that first page of our story
‘Till the time our parents were created

Envious brother Cain
Threw a blow so mad and chilling
Tragically he never did recover
It’s really so insane
All our selfishness, that’s killing
That stranger who’s our sister and our brother

(Chorus:)
So listen brother, listen friend
Just a little smile, a helping hand
And we all will find a loving kind humanity
We must teach our children to
Treat your fellow friends like they were you
And then we all will find some peace of mind and unity

Ages rushing by
Writing chapters full of sorrow
Webs of self destruction, we are weaving
Because if we don’t even try
There’s no hope for our tomorrow
So what’s it all worth if we are not achieving?

(Chorus:)

One thing makes me smile
Now at last a happy ending
A global union anxiously excited
In just a little while
We will join the angels singing
In harmony eternally united.

(Chorus:)
Lonely People - Mordechai Ben David
The English Collection

(By request)

As I walk in the heat, of the big city streets
I get sad when I see lonely people
And although the sun shines, they prefer to be blind
It's so sad when you see lonely people.

The answer to a lonely prayer, anytime anywhere,
To change the direction of life,
Together we can face the fight, help each other get it right,
Believe and you'll always get by

So don't you cry
You'll find the answer there,
So don't be shy, Give it a try,
Stand up and say a prayer.

(Chorus:)
There will be no more lonely people,
Never again
Do the best thing for you, oh yeah!
There will be no more lonely people,
Say it again
You only have to say the word and G-d is there to be your friend.

When the world is going wrong, There is nowhere to belong,
I feel sad when I see lonely people,
There is no hope up ahead, there is no roof, there is no bed,
It's so sad when you see lonely people,

All we have to do is pray, remember each and every day
The reason why we are alive
He's always there, our dearest friend, he’ll be there till the very end
From him we can learn to survive

So don't you cry,
You'll find the answer there.
So don't be shy, give it a try
Stand up and say a prayer.

(Chorus:)
It's Shabbos Now - Chasing Prophecy
Eighth Day

Through the oceans and the rivers
Through every single door.
No matter what the soldiers said
Or how the rain would pour.

Zaidy always kept that smile
And wiped our tears away
Nothing could ever bring him down
When he'd start to say

(Chorus:)
It's shabbos now...
And we'll sing....
(Mah yedidus menuchosaich, Shabbos hamalkah)
(Ma'ain olam habboh, yom Shabbos menucha, kol hamisangim boh yizku l'rosh simcha)
(Pedusainu satzmiach venosyogon va'anacha)
Fill your goblets to the top with royal kiddush wine
Invite your family and your neighbors, its now your time.

Up winding stairs and broken dreams
Papa tries to sell a little more
A penny here a penny there
Mama cries in clothes she tore.

Zaidy always kept that smile
And wiped her tears away
Soon things will turn around
Soon we're gonna say.

(Chorus:)

On a palm beach isle not far from here
They gathered to celebrate
Eighty years a life of courage
Through times of senseless hate

Zaidy always kept his smile
And wiped our tears away
He promised us there will come a time
When we'll always say

(Chorus:)
Yiddishe Mamma - Chasing Prophecy
Eighth Day

So holy, so pure.
Lucky is the mom that had you
Lucky is the dad that raised you
Lucky is the school that schooled you

So holy, so pure.
Evil knocked and the lights went out
The whole world cried when they heard you shout
Like never before.

All the angels and the dreaming men
Rushed to the scene just to hold your hand
Saying what's going on
Hey what's going on.

(Chorus:)
Yiddishe mamma don't you cry
Yiddishe mamma in the sky
Yiddishe mamma a lullaby
Yiddishe mamma of Mumbai
Yiddishe mamma we'll live for you
Yiddishe mamma we'll do what you do
Yiddishe mamma it's coming true
Yiddishe mamma we'll see it through.

So holy so pure.
Lucky is the world that knew you
Lucky are the songs that sang you
Lucky are the Souls that greet you

So holy so pure.
Midnight came and our hearts fell out
The world cried when they heard you shout
But you were never alone

G-d was watching and said right then
You'll be back soon
Yeah back again
Like never before.

(Chorus:)
Play our Music - Chasing Prophecy
Eighth Day

The whole world around me is burning
And our tears have reached the sky
Wild pirates rule the ocean
But your music keeps me right.

The whole world around me is crumbling
Every river has run dry
Black eyed darkness tries to haunt me
But your rhythm keeps me right.

So please play your music, play it nice and strong
Please play your music, the world has waited way too long
Please play your music, play it night and day
Please play your music play it right away.

The whole world is no longer burning
Sweet children’s voices slow the flames
They’re the future and they are shaking
To your rhythms refrain.

Please play your music that you promised me
Please play your music of our destiny
Please play your music set your people free
Please play your music play it finally.
Beggar Woman - Chasing Prophecy
Eighth Day

Today, she was sitting on the street
Sorrow in her eyes, a tin can at her feet
Holes in her stockings and holes in her shoes
She’s an old beggar woman no stranger to bad news

So I reached in my pocket to give a bill or two
In my heart I was trying to see what I could do
She thanked me for the money, I turned to walk away
But I waited for a moment as she began to say

(Chorus:)
G-d loves the widow and the orphan and the blind
The old and the needy who haven’t got a dime
G-d loves the sickly in his eyes we’re all the same
And G-d he loves you too in the sunshine and the rain. (You just call upon His name)

I don’t know where she came from, don’t know her at all
But the wrinkles on her face, they kinda tell it all
So reach in your pocket and give a bill or two
And you can thank G-d in Heaven that the beggar isn’t you.

Yiddish Country - Chasing Prophecy
Eighth Day

A pile of bills, old cheap thrills
Working late night at the old stone mill
These cars and lies, French and fries
What do you see if you close your eyes?

New boots on the floor, sign on the door
Don’t want to see you come around no more
You got your gold neck ties, sweet pumpkin pies
What do you see on rodeo drive?

If there’s a who, there’s a why
There’s a we, there’s a way
I call that raison d’être

If there’s a who, there’s a why
There’s a we, there’s a way
I can hear the sages say

If there’s a who, there’s a why
There’s a we, there’s a way
Make it happen all today

If there’s a who, there’s a why
There’s a we, there’s a way
A little bit is still okay

(Chorus:)
Di vos villen heren, heren
Di vos villen zen, zen
Di vos kenen kenen, kenen
Men darf nor vissen ver un ven

8th Day - Eighth Day
Chasing Prophecy

I'm in no rush, I'm in no hurry
Sitting with you here, what’s to worry.
Soon you’ll be you, and we’ll be we
Living life like it was meant to be.

On that day, your name will be one
Every darkness we’ll have overcome
crying prophets will start having fun
on that day I won’t be on the run.

(Chorus:)
8th day.
When the sun won’t set, you’ll know that he’s come
When this song won’t end, you’ll know that he’s come
When we’re all on a mountain up in his home
Reaping all the fruits that we have sown
From LA to Chicago up in Meron
From LA to Chicago we will all be your own.

I’m in no rush, I’m in no hurry
Sitting with you here, what’s to worry.
Soon you’ll be you, and we’ll be we
Making sense out of our history

Chasing Prophecy - Eighth Day
Chasing Prophecy

Singing singing
Dreaming dreaming
What’s that you said about under achieving

Singing singing
Dreaming dreaming
Sometimes it’s you that needs some believing.

Walk it down to the milk and honey, don’t slow down till you start making money.
Walk it down past the nitty gritty, don’t slow down till you rebuild your city.

(Chorus:)
Chasing your prophecy, chase chase.

Al tomar le'che'she'efne, shemo lo tipone 

Grab it down the white clouds of glory, don’t slow down till the end of the story.
Grab it down and don’t have no pity, don’t slow down till you see your holy city.
Tatenyu - Eighth Day
Chasing Prophecy

Jack grew up in New York City, on the plaza with a view
His parents were screaming Harvard, but he was just looking for You.
He came by for a Shabbos, we stayed up way past two
We spoke about a life of meaning, because he was just looking for You.

(Chorus:)
Men zuch nisht Dine Olam Haboh
Men zucht nisht Dine Gan Eden
Men vil nisht chapen Diner Melochim
Men zuch nohr Dich alein
We’re not looking for your Heaven’s doors
Not looking for your mirrored walls
Not looking to pull any strings
We’re just looking for you.
Tatenyu.

Jack's now Yakov Halevi, and our friendship really grew
He’s got a nice place in the old city, where he’s just looking for you. 
Still a big fan of the Yankees, and a Harvard alumni too
But his grand-kids are keeping shabbos and singing this song about you.
Smile - Eighth Day
Chasing Prophecy

We’ve been to the east to the north to the south, and now we own the west
We tell your tales, and we sing your scales and we try to do our best.
There is nothing wrong and we’ve beat king kong and we’re waiting at your door.
What can we do that we haven’t done before?
What can we do to put a smile on your face.

With our buttons shined and our boots looking fine
We’re waiting for your call.
From the Temple times, to these hopeless rhythms you still want something more
With your eye on the ball, they say you can’t fall
If you're laying on the ground, so what can we do to turn it around.
 
What can we do to put a smile on your face. 

Kalu Kalu, Kvar Kalu Kol hakitzim
Avraham - Eighth Day
Chasing Prophecy

Sitting in the hot dessert sun, you’ve been told you’d be on the run
Down to egypt to pharaoh’s town, to Rome and Spain and many other lands
But you opened your doors to tired men, to lonely passersby and angels from heaven
Your kindness and your care were known far and wide, father of a nation your soul is alive.

(Chorus:)
Avraham are we the children that you dreamed of?
Are we the shining stars you saw at night?
You know its true, we still call you avinu
Our father our pride we’ve got your soul inside, take us home.

You’ve been through every test, now look a small shul in the mid west
A child was born just the other day, and all those gathered there heard his mother say
Although its been three thousand years, and we’ve been fighting back all the tears
One man’s lullaby a nation will survive, father of our people your dream is alive.

(Chorus:)

Your courage and your might, kept the pharaohs up at night
No hand could hold you, no stranger would forget you.

Avraham yes we’re the children that you dreamed of
And we’re the shining stars you saw at night
You know its true, it’s why we call you avinu
Our father our pride we’ve got your soul inside, take us home.
Emosai - Eighth Day
Chasing Prophecy

Emosai ko'osi mar, ko'osi mar lich'she'yafutzu

Wherever we go, people want to know
Whose words are we preaching, whose story we teaching.
Whatever the show, people want to know
How to inspire, with holy desire
Where ever we go, people want to know
Whose hopes are we reaching, whose dream are we dreaming.
Whatever the show, people want to know
How to inspire, to take us all higher.

So we tell them, the holy ba’al shem (der heiliger ba'al shem)
So we tell them, there is only One in heaven.
So we tell them, you have a holy heart
So we tell them, he knew it from the start
