[HANASHIR:12489] RE: What d'ya think of this song?

[Judy Hudspeth <jwshudspeth...>]

On another topic ~ recently someone was asking for music for a bar/bat 
mitzvah, preferably in English.  I couldn't think of the name at the time, 
but there is an amazing "Blessing" by Rabbi Joe Black that really speaks to 
the moment.  I was just going thru music for an adult ed contemp. Jewish 
music class and found it, and hope that copying the first verse and chorus 
will no infringe:
May you live to see your world fulfilled
        And share in worlds to come
May you trust the past and future
        And see God in everyone
May your words be filled with insight
        Songs of praise be on your tongue
May your wisdom lie before you
May you shine with the light of the Holy One

And may God bless and keep you
May God's light shine down on you
And may God bless you with
        Happiness and Peace

Thanks Rabbi!  It really says so much.
