In response to Raquel's thoughts on Adon Olam, I ponder whether the fact that
the words can be used to almost any melody is indicative of the accessibility
of those words to all, especially in the case of the young people. We have
talked a lot on this list about getting the kids to sing. So - if they are
singing the words to tunes that are familiar to them, they are singing! They
are learning the words. The deeper meaning just may have to come later!
