IT HAPPENED YOM KIPPUR- Tzlil V’zemer Boys Choir- Wake Up Yidden

It happened Yom Kippur, as they were praying,
A truck pulled up, the sergeant was saying,
“A war has broke out, we need all our men
to serve Lemaan Hashem”.

Young Mottel turned ‘round to his father beside him,
“Father, advise me before I go fight them,
Give me a Bracha, I should have Hatzlocha,
And let’s hope we’ll meet again”.

“Oh, Mottel, my son, do not be dejected,
We have a Mezuza, you’ll be protected,
Set aside time during each day
to study our Torah and pray.

Speak to the soldiers that will be with you,
Teach them Bechol Drochecha Do’ei’hu,
Hashem Yishmor Tzeischa, safe and secure,
Until you’ll be with us once more”.
