[HANASHIR:16583] RE: Justice songs

[efleischmann <efleischmann...>]

Dear Meris,

Rabbi Joe Black just sang at One Shabbat Morning, and he was
absolutely terrific.  He wrote a "Pitchuli" that is moving,
sing-alongable and really wonderful.  Check out rabbijoeblack.com, or
contact Soundswrite, his publisher.  

"Open the gates of justice.
Open the gates for me.
Open the gates of freedom, 
Pitchuli.

Pitchuli shaare tzedek..."

Best of luck,

Ellen Fleischmann
