Chorus:

Let's change the world Today - Avraham Fried

Some people say the world has gone bad
Evil has stolen the day
Some people say to throw in the towel
I dont feel that way
'Cuz every good deed that you do
And every kind word that you say has a way
Has a way to change the world

Chorus:
There is so much we can do to make this world
A kinder better happier place
There is so much we can do to change the world
Let's change the world today

That day in September changed our lives
The darkest day by far
They broke our heart but woke up our soul
We'll show them who we are
'Cuz we are towers of light
And we have the power to do what is right
Let's illuminate the night

chorus:

You don't need a reason or season my friend
You don't need fortune or fame
Go out of your way, make someone's day
Now that's the name of the game
'Cuz every good deed that you do
And every kind word that you say has a way
Has a way to change the world

chorus:


(In the original recording, this verse is included:)
So step up to the plate and celebrate your freedom
The world is not a jungle so dont bungle your chance
And if youre tired of the world as it lies
Remember one good deed is better than a thousand sighs

chorus:

My Fellow Jew - Avraham Fried
G-d smiled in heaven
But His joy was not complete
The angels were singing
But their song had no wings
The world was freshly painted
Yet the sky was feeling blue
Something, something just wasn’t right

Then with you came a G-dly light
That made the world complete
You gave the world its heart
You gave the world its soul
Now G-d can call this place his home
For now there was you
My brother, my fellow Jew

Chorus:
So with all my heart and soul
Let me honor you
A gentle people with a faith of steel
You teach the world
How to live and how to give and how to believe
If I could look into your heart
I would see the face of G-d

You have weathered all the storms
They’ve all come and gone
You are the unsung heroes of the world
And you were born of ancient days
And you will go on and on
I’ve seen miracles before
But the greatest of them all is you my fellow Jew

Who can count the teardrops
That have fallen from your eyes
And who would dare to measure
The pain that you have known
Yet here you are undaunted with a mission and a dream
You carry on when hope is gone
All that you live for will come true

And so when at times I’m feeling weak
It’s you who makes me strong
And when at times I cannot speak
You become my song
I know I can do the impossible
When I think of you
My brother, my fellow Jew

Chorus:

Nisht Gedayget - Avraham Fried

Chorus:

Father Don't Cry - Avraham Fried

I will never forget
The night I saw my father cry
I was frightened and alone
And his tears were burning in my eyes
Deep in my soul
I held him tight
And tried to ease the pain

Father in heaven
It's no secret at all
When You think of Your children
How far they are from home
Two tender tears fall from Your eyes
And Your cries shake the world
I cannot bear to see You this way

Chorus:
Father don't cry I love You too much to see You in pain
And only You Who created tears
Can wipe them away forever
So bring on the day when there'll be only joy
You and I will smile
Bring on the day when there'll be be no more tears
We'll never cry again

I know it's tears of love
But still it hurts me just the same
You have always held my hand
And now I want to hold Yours too
And be there for You
Don't You agree
It's time to send the tears away

Father in heaven
There's no reason at all
Your precious children
Still are so far from home
We've done all we can now it's in Your hands
Let it end, oh, let it end,
The whole world is waiting for You

Chorus:

Umocho Hashem, Hashem Elokim dim'ah me'al kol panim...

Forever One - Avraham Fried

Look inside through the heart of a Jew
Open up its many doors
And the soul is a part of one whole
That joins us to each other
We are all part of one another
And we have always been one

We are one since way back in time
Unified at our start
We were born as a nation to live
And believe with one heart
You and I, we were all gathered there
As one, we said, “We’ll do and hear”
We were born to belong together
And forever be one

Chorus:
Forever one, we will go far
It’s not I am but who we are
We need just to reveal it
We need to try and feel it
And never are we alone
We have each other as our own
Nothing can divide us
For we are forever one!

There are times when we might drift apart
And go our own separate ways
But the spark from Above that we share
Is alive and ablaze
Soon Moshiach will gather each spark
And wipe away the darkness
He will gather us all together
And we shall ever be one

Chorus:

Don't hide from me - Avraham Fried

Don't hide from me,
though I know that you are truly there everywhere
still in all I cannot see you,
don't hide from me
It's been so long since last I saw you smile

Don't hide from me,
where's the promise you would take my hand understand,
my life is not complete without you
don't hide from me
I need to see you more than ever now

Two thousand years is a million years to long
to search for the light that I have never known

Chorus:
show me your face, I need your embrace
won't you please come out of your hiding place
take me on your wing teach me how to sing
the on song the world wants to hear,
oh father dear

Don't hide from me
it seems you're hiding more and more each day why I pray,
I keep looking, you keep hiding
oh I feel so alone, I'm calling to you father please come home

who would believe
the walls of darkness finally have come down all around,
but the walls that stand between us
don't want to fall
tell me the final secret to it all
don't hide from me, is my one and only plea,
father can't you see i'm calling desperately
Chorus:

The time is now - Avraham Fried

Standing still, at the edge of time
There waits a nation for that final sign
Filled with dreams for the Land they know
The home that they were promised long ago

Listen close, and you'll hear their song
It tells of how they waited for so long
Yet they know that the day is near
There's something in the air That says:

The time is now, so keep on trying
Here and now, there's no denying
What we could achieve, if we would only believe
One more mitzvah is all that we need...

Can't you tell, it's almost over
Any day we'll hear that shofar
And then when we do
We'll know that golus is through
We can do it, now is the time...

Time goes by, and the days are long
But we the nation keep the faith that strong
Deep inside it's because we know
That very soon it will be time to go

Time to see why the world began
To know the end of that eternal plan
All along it was meant to be
This is our destiny

And the time is now, so keep on trying
Here and now, there's no denying
What we could achieve, if we would only believe
One more mitzvah is all that we need...

Sound the call, it's almost over
One and all, we'll hear that shofar
And then when we do
We'll know that golus is through
We can do it, listen well
The time is now!
