Conversation in the Womb

My dear brother, look around and tell me what your eyes behold
Don't deny that you see, it's only you and me
Our existence, it is empty, it is cold
Our existence, it is empty, it is cold

But dear brother
You must have faith that we are not the only ones
For in the distance there's a place, where we'll stand up tall and straight
Oh, I believe there is a world to come, yes, I believe that there is a world to come

My dear brother, don't be blind, don't be stubborn, don't be set.
Imagination it's all right, but it won't light up the night
What you see is exactly what you get; oh what you see is exactly what you get

But dear brother
You will surely find when all is said and done
That the future it will show, Ttere is so much we don't know
Oh I believe that there is a world to come, yes I believe that there is a world to come.

My dear brother, Where have you gone?,
Is this the moment I have known? I can faintly hear the cry
My dear brother must have died
It's all over now forever I'm alone, It's all over now forever I'm alone

But dear brother
Please don't mourn me when my life has just begun
For what you hear are sounds of joy
"Congratulations, it's a boy"
Oh I believe that there is a world to come,
Yes I believe that there is a world to come

'Cause what you hear are sounds of joy
"Congratulations, it's a boy"
Soon you'll be here with me in this world to come.
Soon you'll be here with me in this world to come.

Experience song

Now its time to say goodbye
Lets speak soon - who knows when
When spirits will rise up on high
We'll join hands again

We've given all that we can give
Haven't left out a thing
The Torah tells us how to live
Songs of praise we sing

Chorus
Everything we have
Is surely from Hashem
A we'll ever know he taught us well
Nothing they could say
Will change the way we feel
Experience it all together we can't fall
(experience it too together me and you)
Me and you

Soon we'll all be leaving here
An empty room it might be
But we will take with us out there
What only our hearts can see

The joy we feel and love to share
Simcha knows no restraint
No more sadness no more tears
Singing this refrain

My Friend

Moshe Hecht
Friendship Cirlce

Hey it's me your friend your companion
Calling to you from our little island
where our friendship started

It's just you, it's just me
It's just time, it's just silence
Remembering the time on our island
No longer hiding
No longer hiding

And i know i may not look like you
But i sure dream like you
And i dreamt of you
Before i met you

Did you know?
When you come over,
Over, and over
My friend
Yes when your around me,
The joy that surrounds me
My friend
I'm no longer lonely
You are my only
In the end
In the end

I can't stop smiling
No one knows me like you
My friend

Tell me, tell me
Is it true
That giants can't be up with you
There's nothing you can't do

And i know i may not think like you
But i sure laugh like you
Know, do we laugh us two
Yes we do

Did you know?
That when you come over
Over and over
My friend
Yes when you're around me
The joy that surrpunds me
My friend
I'm no longer lonely
You are my only
In the end
In the end

And i can't stop smiling
No one knows me like you
My friend

When you come over
The clouds they roll over
My friend
I can't explain it
What you have created
My friend
I'm no longer lonely
You are my only
In the end
In the end

You changed one life
You changed the world
You changed my life
So watch out - world

Let Us Grow

Tzlil V'Zemer
Volume Five - Let Us Grow


There is a time for all good things
And there's a joy that music brings
There was a moment when it all began

There is a reason and a rhyme
And we can see that throughout time
We are your children and we need to learn...

CHORUS:
Let us grow, let us know
Be the eyes we need to see
Teach and guide us lovingly
Help us to be all we can be

For we have known since time began
That every child born to man
Can be a leader if he feels he can.

You are the confidence we need
And with each smile we plant a seed
As you encourage us and lend your hand...

CHORUS...

We are your tomorrows
All your joys and sorrows
Tell me how to know you
Let me try to show you
Tell me why your sighing
Can't you see me trying

Do you know the answers
I will try my son, your life's just begun
But together we'll find the way

Help us find the answers, how to be
We'll build a better world for you and me
Wait and see

Yes there's a time for all good things
And there's a joy that music brings
There was a moment when it all began

There is a reason and a rhyme
And we can see that throughout time
We are your children and we need to leatn

Let us grow, make us strong and free
There's a light that we're fighting to see

Chevron

Lenny Solomon
Chevron's song of songs

At the entrance to Gan Eden
In the land of holy stones
Lies the hopes and reams of many Jews
It's the city of Chevron

There are people who are living there
With the courage of their own
and they know that we stand beside them
That they are not alone

Chorus:
The flame must never fall out
The flame must never die
Chevron is ours now and forever
Am Yisroel Chai
And while we long for the day
When we will return
From the corners of the earth
Shalhevet's flame must burn

When Avraham bought the land
With a 400 shekel coin
He knew this was where the physical
And Spiritual world enjoin
Now every day you're standing strong
With the dangers that are unknown
We realize you're representing us
By living in Chevron

Chorus...

We've seen them through come painful times
And others might lie ahead
But her soul will last forever
Shalhevet's flame will never end

Together

Marvelous Middos Machine #3
composed by Abie Rotenberg

I am an ancient wall of stone
Atop a hill so high
And if you listen with your heart
You just may hear my cry

Where has the Beis Hamikdash gone?
I stand here all alone
How long am I to wait for all
My children to come home

A house of marble and of gold
Once stood here by my side
From far and wide, all came to see
It's beauty and it's pride

But Sinas Chinam brought it down
And with it so much pain
Now only Ahavas Yisroel
Can bring it back again

Chorus:
Together, together
We stood by Har Sinai, my daughters and sons
Together, forever
We must stand together forever as one

You come and stand beside my stones
To raise your voice in prayer
You ask when will the Galus end
How much more can we bear?

But Sinas Chinam still lives on
It lingers in your heart
How can you come back home with me
While you remain apart?

Chorus...

Memories

Artist: Abie Rotenberg
Album: Journeys 2

I am a very tired, old and worn out man
And my eyes have long been blind
Most things that people say to me
Just seem to slip my mind

Oh, but the suffering and painful times
That were in years long gone
Are still as clear upon my memory
As the numbers on my arm

What will become of all the memories?
Are they to scatter with the dust in the breeze?
Who will stand before the world
Knowing what to say
When the very last survivor
Fades away

When i hold my grandson close to me
And his fingers trace the pattern of my tears
And he asks me, "Zeide, tell me why do you cry?
What is it that you fear?"

And I tell him there once was another child
Who smelled as sweet as felt this warm
But he was taken form before my eyes
And only i remain to mourn

What will become of all the memories?
Are they to scatter with the dust in the breeze?
Who will stand before a world
That now wishes to deny
Will they believe in someone
Who never heard the cries

There us nothing I can say or do
To make things change
Time has a way of passing by so fast
Like a fleeting shadow, no one will recall
The faces of the past

What will become of all the memories?
Are they to scatter with the dust in the breeze?
But one thought gives me comfort
It's all that i have left
For I know that G-d in heaven
Won't forget
