Just One Shabbos

Artist: Mordechai Ben David

Album: Just one Shabbos


Western wall on Friday night, first time ever there,

Strapped into his knapsack, with his long and curly hair.

He stood there for a while, then broke out with a smile,

Emotion, overwhelming joy, with tears.


The men were standing there, their hearts so full of love,

Sang such happy tunes, to thank the one above.

For showing them the way, for giving them a day,

Rest, rejoice, with peace of mind, to pray.


Just one Shabbos, and we'll all be free,

Just one Shabbos, come and join with me.

We'll sing and dance to the sky,

With our spirits so high.

We will show them all it's true,

Let them come and join us too.


i said, 'Hello, my friend, you seem to be amused.'

He said, 'Much more than that, I am a bit confused.

I know I am a Jew, I was Bar Mitzvah too,

But Shabbos in our home, who ever knew.'


He asked to join with us, to understand and see,

He spent some time with us, in total ectasy.

Next Shabbos came along, his feelings grew so strong,

He first began to feel, that he belonged.


Just one Shabbos, and we'll all be free,

Just one Shabbos, come and join with me.

We'll sing and dance to the sky,

With our spirits so high.

We will show them all it's true,

Let them come and join us too.


He found his treasure, made some changes in his life,

A brand new family, his children and his wife.

They learn new things each day, to live the Torah way,

The message of the Shabbos, they will relate.


Now, every Friday night, they go down to the wall,

Invite some people home, and they will tell them all,

We'll teach them this new song, to join and sing along,

Soon we'll all be free, it won't be long.

I promise you!


Just one Shabbos, and we'll all be free,

Just one Shabbos, come and join with me.

We'll sing and dance to the sky,

With our spirits so high.

We will show them all it's true,

Let them come and join us too.
