Goodbye Golus
Artist: Avraham Fried
Album: Goodbye Golus
I've asked the wise,
They say golus is a blessing in disguise.
A greater light follows the night.
But it's been so long, it feels so wrong,
It's not where we belong.
Brothers and friends,
We must bring this golus to its end.
Our urgent cries will pierce the skies,
Tell us Hashem, Ad Mosai - till when?
Golus it's time for you to go, Goodbye,
Bring down the curtain on the show, goodbye.
You're lasting much to long, no one can deny,
Enough is enough it's time to say goodbye.
So open wide your prison door, goodbye,
We are your prisoners no more, goodbye.
You cannot stop us now, so don't even try,
Goodbye, goodbye, it's time to say good bye.
Father and king,
Everything is you and you are everything.
But the golus lies and blinds our eyes,
Why can't we see Your majensty undisguised?
In the heavens high,
All the angles tremble when they hear you cry.
For every Jew, all we've been through,
'Till we are home you're in golus too.
Golus it's time for you to go, Goodbye,
Bring down the curtain on the show, goodbye.
You're lasting much to long, no one can deny,
Enough is enough it's time to say goodbye.
So open wide your prison door, goodbye,
We are your prisoners no more, goodbye.
You cannot stop us now, so don't even try,
Goodbye, goodbye, it's time to say good bye.
Golus it's time...

Don't Hide From Me
Artist: Avraham Fried
Album: Brocha V'Hatzlochah
Don't hide from me,
Though I know that you are truly there, everywhere,
Still and all, I cannot see you, don't hide from me,
its been so long since last I saw you smile.
Don't hide from me,
Wheres the promise you would take my hand, understand,
My life is not complete with out you, don't hide from me.
I need to see you more then ever now.
Two thousand years is a million years too long,
To search for the light that I have never known,
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 one song the world wants to hear
Oh, father dear...
Don't hide from me,
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.
Two thousand years is a million years too long,
To search for the light that I have never known,
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 one song the world wants to hear
Oh, father dear...
Who would believe,
Walls of darkness finally have come down, all around,
But the walls that stand between us, don't want to fold,
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,
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 one song the world wants to hear
Oh, father dear...
Don't hide from me,
Though I know that you are truly there, everywhere,
Still and all, I cannot see you, don't hide from me,
I need to see you more then ever now.

You're Never Alone
Artist: Avraham Fried
Album: You're Never Alone
Sometimes when you're feeling all alone,
You need some happiness to call your own.
Nothing is going the way it should,
You're trying to do the best you could.
Lift up your eyes to the sky,
You're life's in His hands, trust in Him, He will reply.
Guiding all your steps, always at your side,
You are His joy and pride.
And don't you know, you're never alone,
It doesn't matter where you are.
There's nothing in His eyes more special that you,
Wherever you go, Hashem goes with you. (x2)
Sometimes when you're...

We Are Ready
Artist: Avraham Fried
Album: We are ready
Once in a kingdom in the sky,
There lived a mighty king who loved his nation.
Lost below they had wondered far and wide,
Searching for a way to return.
And watching helplessly he tried,
To whisper to their hearts the only answer.
It's not a road or a path you must find,
All I need is to hear the words...
We are ready, Yes we're ready,
So lead us and we'll go,
And all the world will know.
It is done,we are one, and we're ready,
Young and old will join us as we sing.
It's over, yes it's over,
With all we had to do,
We still came shining through.
And we know, yes we know, we are ready,
Fell the power of what we can bring.
Now that the ending has begun,
Now that the time has come to end the story.
All the things we had to do are done,
We are ready now to be heard.
And so we come to you as one,
And standing hand in hand we're going stronger.
Looking now we can see how far we've come,
Just believe in us, hear the words...
We are ready, Yes we're ready,
So lead us and we'll go,
And all the world will know.
It is done,we are one, and we're ready,
Young and old will join us as we sing.
It's over, yes it's over,
With all we had to do,
We still came shining through.
And we know, yes we know, we are ready,
Fell the power of what we can bring.

Giants shoulders
Artist: Avraham Fried
Album: Shtar Hatnoim
When I was young, I heard a tale,
Of a giant standing tall,
And his son, oh, so small.
They shared a dream to see the king,
They hungered for the day,
And hurried on their way.
As they neared, the two despaired,
A wall rose to the skies,
Above the giants eyes.
'Wait my son,' said he,
'Climb upon me,
And after you aries,
You will be my eyes.'
And we will do it brothers,
After us there'll be no others.
Yo and I will do,
What giants wanted to.
So stand a take the credit,
We will be the ones to end it.
Although we're small,
We're standing tall,
Like soldiers,
Riding high because we're on our fathers shoulders.
Holy and pure, our fathers were,
Giant righteous men,
We are small compared to them.
But our deeds upon their deeds,
Together we will bring,
Moshiach our king.
Moshiach our king...
And we will do it brothers,
After us there'll be no others.
Yo and I will do,
What giants wanted to.
So stand a take the credit,
We will be the ones to end it.
Although we're small,
We're standing tall,
Like soldiers,
Riding high because we're on our fathers shoulders.
It's up to us,
To hammer home that final blow,
Our fathers started long ago,
Compelling us to follow.
So stand a take the credit,
We will be the ones to end it.
Although we're small,
We're standing tall,
Like soldiers,
Riding high because we're on our fathers shoulders.
And we will do it brothers,
After us there'll be no others.
Yo and I will do,
What giants wanted to.
So stand a take the credit,
We will be the ones to end it.
Although we're small,
We're standing tall,
Like soldiers,
Riding high because we're on our fathers shoulders.

The Time is Now
Artist: Avraham Fried
Album: The Time is Now
Standing still at the edge of time,
There waits a nation for that final sign.
Filled with dreams of a land they know,
The home that they were promised long ago.
Listen close and you'll hear their song,
It tells of how they've waited for so long.
Yet they know that the day is near,
There is something in the air that says...
The time is now, so keep on trying,
Here and now there's no denying,
What we could acheive if we would only beleive,
One more mitzvah is all that we need.
Can't you tell it's almost over,
Any day we'll hear that shofor,
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 a faith that's 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 acheive if we would only beleive,
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.
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, listen well, the time is now.
Forever one
Artist: Avraham Fried
Album: Forever one
Look inside through the heart of a Jew,
Open up its many doors,
And the soul that you'll see there inside,
Is a reflection of yours.
For each 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 began 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.
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.
These are times when we might drift apart,
And go our won seperate ways.
But the spark from above that we share,
Is alive and ablaze.
Soon Moshiach will gather each spark,
And shine away the darkness.
He will gather us all together
And we shall ever be one.
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, nothing can divide us,
For we are forever one.
