LYRIC
YOU’RE WATCHING ME- Michoel Pruzansky- Composed by Yitzy Waldner, Lyrics by Chanale Fellig-Harrel- Pruzbul
On a line in a cafe
He awaits his turn to pay
He glances at his watch to check the time
When a stranger turns his face
Can I offer you my place
I insist you take my turn right here on line.
A day that seemed like any other
He thanks a man without a name
But when he leaves he will discover
That the very place he stood is now in flames.
CHORUS:
Oh Hashem
Every step I take You guide
Every day I know You’re standing by my side
You open up my eyes when I am lost and cannot see
It’s all in Your hands wherever I am
You’re watching me.
To the hospital he goes
With a Jew he barely knows
Who’s lying in a bed weak and ill.
He holds firmly to his hand
You know your wish is my command
And there’s none too great that I will not fulfill.
Hashem sent you to be my savior
And now my life to you I owe
And anytime you need a favor
I’m here for you. be sure to let me know.
CHORUS:
Oh Hashem
Every step I take You guide
Every day I know You’re standing by my side
You open up my eyes when I am lost and cannot see
It’s all in Your hands wherever I am
You’re watching me.
To America he leaves
One day a phone call he receives
From the son of the man who saved his life.
We’re in town for better care
And we were hoping you’ll be there
For my father when he goes under the knife.
A day that seemed like any other
But once more fate had crossed the way
For as he stood beside his brother
The towers where he worked came down in flames.
CHORUS:
Oh Hashem
Every step we take you guide
Night and day
We know You’re standing at our side
You open up our eyes when we are lost and cannot see
You’re never too far
Wherever we are
There You will be.
