The power of a n**un,
The strength of a song
Brings us all together, gives us comfort,
Makes us strong.
So open your neshamah,
Let the n**un make you whole
And be touched by a n**un;
Let the music soothe your soul.
Chased by their masters,
A nation gripped with fear -
A terrified young people
Face a daunting new frontier.
The sea parts before them,
A miraculous display -
They lift their voice to Heaven,
Shiras haYam they pray.
The power of a n**un,
The strength of a song
Brings us all together, gives us comfort,
Makes us strong.
So open your neshamah,
Let the n**un make you whole
And be touched by a n**un;
Let the music soothe your soul.
Longing for a child,
Her lips move silently-
She cries with heartfelt fervor,
Hashem, please hear my plea!
Behold a son, a prophet!
She knits a cloak with love -
And Chana writes her shira
To thank the One Above.
The power of a n**un,
The strength of a song
Brings us all together, gives us comfort,
Makes us strong.
So open your neshamah,
Let the n**un make you whole
And be touched by a n**un;
Let the music soothe your soul.
A baby born with illness,
His father asks not why -
He fasts in desperation,
Oh please don't let him die!
Faced with a nisayon,
A test of his belief -
Lamnetzeach al mus la'bein,
Dovid's mizmor for his grief.
The power of a n**un,
The strength of a song
Helps to bring us closer,
Gives us comfort, makes us strong.
So open your neshamah,
Let the n**un make you whole -
And be touched by a n**un;
It's the language of your soul.
Learning by a shtender,
He softly hums a tune -
Its timbre and its melody,
The sweet sounds fill the room.
The heartbeat of our people,
The rhythm of our nation -
Its the Shirah of the Torah,
Our pulse our inspiration.
The power of a n**un,
The strength of a song
Helps to bring us closer,
Gives us comfort, makes us strong.
So open your neshamah,
Let the n**un make you whole -
And be touched by a n**un;
It's the language of your soul.
Throughout our People's journey,
The n**un touched our soul.
It's lifted us, brought us joy;
When needed, it consoles.
So open your neshamah,
Let the n**un make you whole -
And be touched by a n**un;
Let the music soothe your soul
The power of a n**un,
The strength of a song
Brings us all together,
Gives us comfort,
Makes us strong.
So open your neshamah,
Let the n**un make you whole
And be touched by a n**un;
Let the music soothe your soul.
