5/20/2025

B’Hukotai - Va'olaykh ethkem Kom'miyut (I caused you stand upright)

וָאוֹלֵ֥ךְ אֶתְכֶ֖ם קֽוֹמְמִיּֽוּת׃
Va’Olayhk Etchem
Kom’me’miyut (2x)

I broke your chains
Removed your pains
I helped you stand
And held your hand

Va’Olayhk Etchem
Kom’me’miyut (2x)

From our necks,
You removed the yolk.
Now we bask in your Torah
Now we have hope

Va’Olayhk Etchem
Kom’me’miyut (2x)

B’Hukotai Telaykhu
Walk in my ways
Teach us to treasure our days

Va’Olayhk Etchem
Kom’me’miyut (2x)

Vayekhel: Marbim- Exceeding the Call

Exodus 36:5-6
and said to Moses, “The people are bringing more than (מַרְבִּ֥ים) is needed for the tasks entailed in the work that ה' has commanded to be done.” (6) Moses thereupon had this proclamation made throughout the camp: “Let no man or woman make further effort toward gifts for the sanctuary!” So the people stopped bringing:

Exceeding the Call Marbin Lyrics:

Vayekhel Yisrael
Vayehel Yisrael
Moses put out the sacred call
And then came them all
Marbim

Eesh V’Eesha
Nediv Nediva
Marbim

More than enough
We have too much
Marbim
Thanks be to All
You heeded the call
Marbim

As art meets the eye
We’ll beautify
Marbim

Yitro: A Plea to Share the Work

Madua (2x) Ata Yoshev Levadehka. (2x)
Lo Tuhkal Asahu Levadecha
Asahu Levadecha

Listen to me
Hear my plea
Lighten the weight on your soul
Gather some friends
To tie up loose ends
And the calm will return once again.

Why do you sit all alone.
You cant do it all alone

Va'era Maleh Dam Music and Lyrics Exodus 6:2-9:35

Va'era Maleh Dam

From the Negev to the Yam
Like the Nile
Were full of Dam

Maleh Dam

So the midwives
Tried to save
Many babies
From the waves

But there was dam dam dam
Maleh dam

So the waters of the Nile
Carried forth
A helpless child
It was her last ability
All this death
Too much for me

Cause there is dam dam
Malaeh dam

Moses held his out staff
But the Nile began to laugh
The magic your God creates
For me it’s just too late

I’m full of dam dam dam

So there was dam dam dam dam
Maleh dam (2x)

For seven horrid days
Egypt melted away
Life gave way to Death
But Pharoh held his breath

For was dam dam dam dam
Maleh dam (2x)

From the Negev to the Yam
Sanctify our holy dam
We can save them
They can save us
If we choose

To save dam dam dam holy dam
Holy dam
