Thanks BSD, you see, I don’t know hebrew as you may know it but I really like the language.

Thanks Snapplegrl, I got the prayer off the internet and I’ll try to match the hebrew words to the english provided as well as get an idea at least of what the song means!

Thanks very much Flyer! Especially for the way you wrote the lyrics, the English words to the right for the Hebrew words on the left! Shalom!
