[HANASHIR:10124] Bar/bat mitzvah song

[Carol Boyd Leon <cbleon...>]

Chevre:
Today was my son's bar mitzvah.  More than a year ago, I wrote a song for 
this special day but was saving it until today.  Eventually I'll publish 
"You Are My Child" as part of a life cycle song collection.  But in 
celebration and gratitude for having reached this day, I am happy to send 
the sheet music for "You Are My Child" to any temple musician who requests 
it.  (Please email me privately at CBLeon (at) hotmail with your snail mail 
address.)

Here are some of the lyrics:

You are my child, always my child,
As you stand before us, seeking truth.
My child, always my child,
With the Torah as your guide.
My child, always my child,
On this day I share you with the world,
No longer a child, my child.

May life's melody resound within your soul and on your lips.
May your dreams and hopes become reality.
May your days be blessed with wonder
And with wisdom and with love.
May angels always watch you from above.
