A song of yearning. A song of returning to our land, returning home.
Composed, Written, and Sung by: Moshe Schneider
Lyrics:
A promise of tomorrow, a future filled with holiness
He told him לך-לך now go, from the place that you call home
לזרעך(אתן)את הארץ, I will give this land to you
And to your children
He led them all to freedom, to begin our nation’s legacy
our holy land he yearned to see
Ascend the mountain and behold
And now we’re home, yes! we’re home
We’re finally home, in the place where we belong
It’s been so long, that we’ve been gone
So lost and misplaced, scattered all across the globe
But now that we are back again, we beg you, please resume your throne we’re finally home
A king was crowned in Persia, Hashem impressed upon his heart
back to your land you may depart
So Ezra gathered young and old, and he tried to bring them home
But so few listened
Two thousand years of sorrow, can we so easily ignore
At last! the gates are open, so come back home forevermore
Moshiachs waiting at the door
So let us greet him
And come back home, come back home
Finally home, in the place where we belong
It’s been so long, that we’ve been gone
So lost and alone, scattered all across the globe
But now that we are back again, we beg you, please resume your throne we’re finally home
Home, yes! we’re home
We’re finally home, in the place where we belong
It’s been so long, that we’ve been gone
So far from the place that you’ve been waiting, all alone
But now that we are back again, we beg you, please resume your throne we’re finally home
