| REMEMBER, ISRAEL, YOM KIPPUR by Eva |
| Remember, Israel, the War of '73; For truly it left its mark in world history. Against you, my kinsmen, were all the odds. Only on this Rosh Hashanah, your prayers, As incense burning, Touched the very heart of G-D. There your enemies, full of lies, Did creep in unaware, not realizing that The G-D of Israel had both heard And received your prayers. As your enemies joined forces to Come against the "Promised Land", In stepped G-D, the G-D of your fathers, The G-D of Abraham. As the nations gathered 'round you On that unforgettable day, A greater army was released Who would drive them all away. It was G-D Who'd charged His angels To fight for you on that sacred day, Giving you the victory No matter what the world would say. Therefore, beloved brethren, Remember always Yom Kippur, And know that your prayers of penitence Open wide to you Heaven's door. |
