help with songs -Reply

[Michelle Katz <MICHKATZ...>]

Not really about Adam and Eve per se, but for creation songs there is
always "This Is Very Good" by Klepper (?).  Some also refer to it as
"When G-d Made The World."

I also know a little Adam and Eve ditty written by Rabbi Jamie Gibson at
Temple Sinai in Pittsburgh.  The words are:

G-d said to Adam and to Eve
P'ru U'r'vu -- Be happy, do not grieve
Please fill my world with a happy noise
Please fill my world with happy girls and boys
P'ru U'r'vu, P'ru U'r'vu
And G-d said P'ru U'r'vu

I am not making this up. If I recall the story correctly, he wrote it on a dare
that he could not write a song about the first commandment of the Torah
that had a "G" rating.  It is actually included on the Temple Sinai Tot
Shabbat cassette tape.  If anyone is dying to have the music for this, I can
put you in touch with Jamie.

Hi everybody!!

I will be songleading at Etz Chaim daycamp (Chicago area) next week and
the week
after.  Do any of you know songs for Adam and Eve and Jonah?  I know
the Raffi
Jonah song but any other help would be much appreciated.

I hope you are all doing well.  Has it already been almost two months since
Hava
HaShirah?  My, my.  I miss you all.

Thanks,

Terry Shapiro
