I WILL ALWAYS BE A JEW- JEP

All the nations of the world have always tried to do us in,
But the Jews who kept the Torah always knew that they would win.
Oh, they tried to make us fall,
Oh, they tried to make us fear,
But they’ll never, never, not forever, make us disappear.

CHORUS:
‘Cuz when we try to keep the Mitzvos and keep Torah as our guide,
Hashem promised Avraham that He’d be by our side.
Oh, yes I do, yes I do, know Hashem’s promise is true,
Yes it’s true, yes it’s true, I will always be a Jew!
Yes it’s true, yes it’s true, I will always be a Jew!

The Egyptians forced us to work hard, they made us into slaves,
But we learned from this experience how good Jews do behave.
Oh, we kept our Jewish language and our Jewish clothes the same,
And we’ll never, never, not forever, change our Jewish names.

CHORUS:
‘Cuz when we try to keep the Mitzvos and keep Torah as our guide,
Hashem promised Avraham that He’d be by our side.
Oh, yes I do, yes I do, know Hashem’s promise is true,
Yes it’s true, yes it’s true, I will always be a Jew!
Yes it’s true, yes it’s true, I will always be a Jew!

Oh, the Greeks they said our Torah was old fashioned, out of date,
And they tried hard to convince us that their way of life was great.
But we had strong belief, for Hashem’s name we did fight,
The menorah had its flame burning for eight days and nights.

CHORUS:
‘Cuz when we try to keep the Mitzvos and keep Torah as our guide,
Hashem promised Avraham that He’d be by our side.
Oh, yes I do, yes I do, know Hashem’s promise is true,
Yes it’s true, yes it’s true, I will always be a Jew!
Yes it’s true, yes it’s true, I will always be a Jew!

Oh, bad Haman tried to kill us, do you know the reason why?
It’s because we did not listen to our tzaddik Mordechai.
But we learned so very quickly that to make the enemy lose,
We must never, never, not forever stop to be good Jews.

‘Cuz when we try…

Nowadays we’re in an exile that seems very hard and long,
Since the gentiles seem to be our friends we must stay really strong.
Things may seem very tough, but redemption isn’t far.
We must never, never, not forever, forget who we are.

CHORUS:
‘Cuz when we try to keep the Mitzvos and keep Torah as our guide,
Hashem promised Avraham that He’d be by our side.
Oh, yes I do, yes I do, know Hashem’s promise is true,
Yes it’s true, yes it’s true, I will always be a Jew!
Yes it’s true, yes it’s true, I will always be a Jew!
