Source of All Life
Daily Your Jewish Children
Praise You and Your Mighty Deeds
We call you:
Matir Asurim
The One who Releases the Imprisoned
Someich Noflim
The One Who Lifts up the Fallen
Rofei Ha-Cholim
The One Who Heals the Sick
We trust You keep faith with those who sleep in the dust
And now
slumber in the dust of disease, suffering and loss
We sleep in the Valley of the Shadow of Death
Keep faith
Creator of all life
children who are themselves
But ashes and dust
Cry out in praise of life
But our voices are muffled by masks
Do you hear
Keep faith
Many among us are sick
Many among us are imprisoned
Many have fallen…
Into poverty,
Destitution, and despair
Keep faith in You
Keep faith in Us
Our Gevurot
Our Mighty Deeds
Let Us lift up the fallen
Let Us free the captive
Let Us heal the sick
And when we can not
Let Us keep faith
Where there is death
Let us praise
Life
Rav L’Hoshiya
Mighty is Your Salvation
is Our Salvation
Source of All Life
Daily Your Jewish Children
Praise You and Your
Gevurot
Mighty Deeds
and say:
Baruch Atah Adonai
M’Chayei Ha-Meitim
Blessed are you O God
Bring life even where there is death
Amen
