Lyrics
Rosh Hashanah, the time to forgive
Think about all that we?ve said
Words spoken before being thought through
Never thinking for a moment of how they?d hurt you
Thinking of how our Fathers before
Kept their eyes on the L-rd
Pillars of kindness, service and truth
That?s Abraham, Isaac and Jacob for you
Bridge
Rosh HaShannah, Head of the Years
L?Shana Tova inscribed and sealed
Round is the challah for fullness and life
Together with apples in honey we dip
Sweet is the prayer for our New Year
The Day of Judgment, we stand before Him
The Book of life on His Desk opened wide
Have I done everything I know I should do
Cleans hands and a pure heart, I stand before you
Chorus
I am my beloved?s and my beloved is mine
Who may ascend the mountain of the L-rd
Who may stand in His Holy Place
He of pure heart and clean hands
I am my beloved?s and my beloved is mine
Listen to the Shofar as it sounds
The King?s Coronation and a Jewish heart cry
Signal to wake us from spiritual sleep
Reminding us of the Mitzvahs to keep
Bridge
Rosh HaShannah, Head of the Years
L?Shana Tova inscribed and sealed
Round is the challah for fullness and life
Together with apples in honey we dip
Sweet is the prayer for our New Year
Rosh HaShanah
