Israels true beauty

The true beauty of Israel is not the pastures green

but that which may seem bleak but is in truth beauty unseen

Israel's true beauty is not for the naked eye

But its holiness and history that occasions a soulful sigh

The true beauty of Israel is not it's bountiful fruit and flower

But rather that with our arrival did they start to tower

The true beauty of Israel is not in political sensation

But the privilege of living here as a nation

To behold Israel's true beauty is always within sight

Commensurate with our choice to acknowledge our Divine right

Dont let hope escape

Dont let hope escape......for there is only darkness in it's wake

In hopes absence more than the strongest backs break

Hope is the prism through which your soul can shine

and testimony that with G-D you do align

Those who call hope folly

will find no true reason to be jolly

Dont let hope escape your sight

for with it goes your might

So let hope feel welcome for more than a day

Then you will stay strong and not be led astray

ISRAEL'S FATE

For Israels fate many of you fear

You worry that she may overnight disappear

extend your eye to our nations first day

we may have fallen even at times gone astray

yet no matter our enemies resolve

In G-D's eye ,past the fleeting they will never evolve

For ours is a mission Divine

A history replete with miracle and sign

that we will prevail and remain eternal

and our foes cast down , forever infernal

TAKE THE NOW

Why should happiness dissipate

just because tomorrow you might be irate

Why should peace of mind depart

because worry might soon start

Why should self esteem crumble

because tomorrow you might stumble

The power of might makes us weak

when it is that which could be that we seek

Lets take the now without limit

Give it our best and live it

and then you will never feel the pain of having missed it

DISPLAY

are people what they say

or is that all merely for display

do we go by whats on the surface come what may

some would say that the display is the only way

yet without content there would be nothing left but disarray

with understanding and care leading our expedition

let us discover and listen for the notes behind the rendition

and though the mouth be the quill of the heart

if we reach a persons heart today

you may find much more than a display

Divine Song

Stay strong

Even when the day is long

be open to see the Divine song

in all you see , all who come along

then banished is the need to prolong

and wallow, in all that is wrong

Beyond my heart

Israel your borders reach beyond my heart

I know that no matter where I am we are never apart

without you my day would not start

for the tapestry that connects us is a Divine art

unbreakable by man strengthened by the heart

I journey along your pathways and know that from our union light I will never depart

Only when engulfed in your warm embrace

Is clarity unhindered all seeing that Israel is my place
