[HANASHIR:10740] Re: Ufros Aleinu

[Jennifer Stevens <srtalina...>]

Not sure about the music -- I have a note to a person who I know who might 
have it.  Here are the words I remember:

Ufros aleinu sukkat shlomecha (2x with a slight melody change at the end of 
the second time)

O guide my steps and help me find my way
I need your shelter now
Rock me in your arms and guide my steps
And help me make this day
A song of praise to you
Rock me in your arms and guide my steps. (Repeat this verse)

In terms of teaching it, both verses are relatively simple melodies, but I 
find people struggle a bit with one of the "higher" notes in the Hebrew and 
with the slight differences between 1st time and 2nd time through.

Hope this helps some,
Jennifer
