    Welcoming Shabbat and a new year may we be blessed with health and love.

    Although this isn’t a Kabbalat Shabbat song (we actually use a different prayer, Shalom Rav, in the evenings) the message is important- a hope for peace and a willingness to do our part in making it happen.  Enjoy.

    Shabbat Shalom and Happy New Year.

    As Hanukkah comes to an end and Shabbat is about to being,

    I wanted to share one of my favorite groups singing one of my favorite songs

    Shabbat Shalom

    We start the day with the prayer Modeh Ani L’fanecha, an intention setting Thank You to get the day started right.  The joy of the song and the campers seems like a great way to welcome Shabbat.

  • Between the Holy and Profane

    I live between the Holy and Profane

    a moving song that describes the space we find ourselves  A song that helps us understand the need for the sacred protective space that is Shabbat.

    Shabbat Shalom.

    (The English lyrics are below the song.  )

    Between the Sacred and the Profane

    I live between the sacred and the profane
    With the truth that rages within me
    With a thousand habits
    With every scar on my face
    I go out again to scatter the words
    Between reality and madness, it’s all coming back to me
    The place from whence I came has no peace in it
    And this journey is heavy and a little too much for me
    I need to grow out of it and that’s it
    To grow out of it and that’s it
    I live between the sacred and the profane
    Between the truth that rages within me
    With a thousand habits
    With all the fear upon my shoulders
    I go out again to scatter the words
    Between reality and madness, it’s all coming back to me
    The place from whence I came has no peace in it
    And this journey is heavy and a little too much for me
    I need to grow out of it and that’s it, to grow out of it and that’s it
    Please, keep me safe
    So that my feet shall not fail
    Between reality and madness, it’s all coming back to me
    Even the place from whence I came has no peace in it
    And this journey is heavy and a little too much for me
    I need to grow out of it and that’s it
    To grow out of it and that’s it
    I live between the sacred and the profane
