Shabbat Shalom

We share the prayer Shabbat Shalom,  A hope for peace and completeness.

U2’s I Still Haven’t Found What I’m Looking For is a longing for that prayer to be fulfilled.

As we enter Shabbat, Playing For Change shares that yearning and the return of those who are not with them. And we include Ran Gvili.  We pray for peace and wholeness.

Playing for Change brings musicians from around the world together to perform songs of unity, peace, and love. Amazing Grace is not usually on the Kabbalat Shabbat Playlist for most of us, but if you watch and listen, the singers in Jerusalem and the lyrics convey hope and faith, which is what we need as we enter Shabbat.

This beautiful song, better together, helps set the mood for Shabbat- lyrics, melody, and people combine to form an easy-listening message of deep importance.

Celebrate the power of unity with “Better Together” Song Around The World, featuring Jack Johnson, Paula Fuga, Lee Oskar and talented musicians from around the globe. This beautiful, feel-good song was a single, released in February 2006 from Jack Johnson’s third studio album, “In Between Dreams,” and was inspired by his love for his wife. “Better Together” has a universal message that “it’s always better together” when we lead with love as the answer.

Teach your Children is a song that has always moved me with its special message.  The V’ahavta echoes inside my head as I hear the music play and the words reach out, sharing the message: we are in this together, to share our wisdom and make meaning of our life journey.

This is the Playing for Change Band onstage in Tel Aviv with the timeless song of Crosby Stills and Nash.
