Don't be afraid of any passing giant
Don't be hesitant to be more than defiant
For theirs is a size that brings no shelter
But exposes them to the destruction of helter skelter
the strength of their oppression
makes but a fleeting impression
As history is their existence
eternity Israels persistence
and Hashem(G-D'S)constant blessing Israel's fortuitous resilience

DISPERSED
Though you are dispersed never forget
that you are Israel even if you have not met
Though you are dispersed never forget
A lapse in memory has brought painful regret
when fickle friend enemies lured us into their net
Torturous reminders arousing us from slumber
Letting us choose to be proudly Israel or go under
Even though you are dispersed dont hide from inevitable Israel
It is who you are whether you succeed or fail
Knowing you are Israel ,Jerusalem your only direction
So that no matter the distance you will never lose perception

FOR YOU FROM ISRAEL
Every tear that falls in Israel is for you
Every soldier fallen for you
Every terrorist attacked endured for you
Every war fought for you
Each drought suffered for you
Each financial burden experienced for you
Every tear of joy for you
Each new babies cry for you
Each breathtaking view for you
Every victory for you
Every breakthough and achievement for you
Each new crop for you
Every joyous letter of Torah learnt for you
For no matter where you are Israel is you
No matter the exile or level of denial Israel is you
only on Israel with all of Israel ,people and Torah
Will redemption finally be made true
Every soldier fallen for you
Every terrorist attacked endured for you
Every war fought for you
Each drought suffered for you
Each financial burden experienced for you
Every tear of joy for you
Each new babies cry for you
Each breathtaking view for you
Every victory for you
Every breakthough and achievement for you
Each new crop for you
Every joyous letter of Torah learnt for you
For no matter where you are Israel is you
No matter the exile or level of denial Israel is you
only on Israel with all of Israel ,people and Torah
Will redemption finally be made true

ISRAELS BORDERS
Israels borders always under threat
Always defended without regret
they, our enemies never let up
in the vain hope that we might back up
panic ,despair at times flares up
with seemingly portentous discord in their wake
yet nothing will their victory make
all their progress is but fleeting and fake
Israels borders will never be forever obscured
For it is with the Lords blessing and promise they were
procured
Always defended without regret
they, our enemies never let up
in the vain hope that we might back up
panic ,despair at times flares up
with seemingly portentous discord in their wake
yet nothing will their victory make
all their progress is but fleeting and fake
Israels borders will never be forever obscured
For it is with the Lords blessing and promise they were
procured
EACH DAY IN ISRAEL
Each day in Israel takes my breath away
humbled that Hashem(G-D) grants my stay
an honor sublime that no words can convey
for no matter my size, intellect or station
I share the day with my people as a nation
Our situation today is far from ideal
but being in Israel means it is no dream but real
even the the darkest days are of a lighter shade
On the land where our nations destiny is being made
through the centuries of pain there has been no recompense
yet with each day in Israel it all starts to make sense

MOMENTS
Let the beauty of life's moments encompass you
allow the enormous potential to uplift you
even if at present the feeling evades you
act as if each moment is a gift
then through all challenges will you sift
never letting go of each and every gift
a moment ,so precious when passes is lost
what we do with the next will determine the cost
if you choose the blindness of depression
then your only recourse will be regression
fight for the light that will give you sight
to make the choices that shine most bright
each new moment is constant hope
an end to the need to always mope
for no matter what the history
with Divine blessing writing a new chapter is no longer a mystery
allow the enormous potential to uplift you
even if at present the feeling evades you
act as if each moment is a gift
then through all challenges will you sift
never letting go of each and every gift
a moment ,so precious when passes is lost
what we do with the next will determine the cost
if you choose the blindness of depression
then your only recourse will be regression
fight for the light that will give you sight
to make the choices that shine most bright
each new moment is constant hope
an end to the need to always mope
for no matter what the history
with Divine blessing writing a new chapter is no longer a mystery

TO FORGIVE
Even to forgive those who are truly contrite
is often a tremendous fight
Yet to extend forgiveness in part
does not allow renewal to truly start
If forgiveness in the end does not carry the day
that which is not forgiven keeps true growth at bay
crippling relationships and darkening our sight
from basking in the unfettered rays of forgiveness's light
the desire to forgive realigns our compass
to walk in another's shoes thus helping us bypass
much of the pain,the anger that brought us down
and prevents any needless ego filled showdown
It is not for another when you choose to forgive
but for you ,so with the release you will truly live
is often a tremendous fight
Yet to extend forgiveness in part
does not allow renewal to truly start
If forgiveness in the end does not carry the day
that which is not forgiven keeps true growth at bay
crippling relationships and darkening our sight
from basking in the unfettered rays of forgiveness's light
the desire to forgive realigns our compass
to walk in another's shoes thus helping us bypass
much of the pain,the anger that brought us down
and prevents any needless ego filled showdown
It is not for another when you choose to forgive
but for you ,so with the release you will truly live
