Sung in Hebrew and clearly a Jewish tune, this musical arrangement is haunting and profound. The text is a statement of faith and hope and could serve as a poignant concert or worship opener. The violin part is included in the octavo and brings authenticity to this multicultural offering.

Brings me to tears every time I listen. I find myself often coming back to this video, especially recently. Last month, April, I visited the Holocaust Museum and Education Center in Skokie, IL. Seeing remnants of such a tragic time where so many perished was enough to render me speechless. Seeing the boxcar that went to death camps time and time again, and being able to step inside felt so surreal. It really put my life and others into perspective.
Knowing that this song was, historically, many Jewish people's last words and songs as they were sent to die in the gas chambers, this song is quite complex. They declared faith to their god as they took their final breaths. The quiet beginning, turning into a transition to forte, gradually fading to piano, symbolizing those poor people dying one by one is not lost upon me. There is a sense of despair in this rendition, yet also one of hope and devotion. Powerful beyond words.
I return once more, May 6th, Holocaust Remembrance Day. I mourn the loss of the lives carried out by the Nazis. The holocaust was the genocide that moved me to study genocides closely and identify their patterns. Now, I see a genocide in Palestine, and I weep just as I did visiting the Skokie museum. We must not let another Holocaust, another genocide, happen again. Never again, for ANYONE.
