IT’S TIME TO SAY GOOD SHABBOS- Journeys- Composed by Abie Rotenberg- Journeys 1
The sun is going down, it’s shining through the trees,
Another week’s gone by, become a memory,
So throw away your hammer, there’s nothing left to do,
Go on home and find the gift, it’s waiting there for you.
Oh, it’s time to say Good Shabbos, ’cause all your work is done,
Gonna spend the day together with the Holy One,
Say a special blessing on a cup that’s filled with wine,
Man and his creator it’s a very special sign.
Your candles will be burning, they’ll fill your home with light,
Singing songs of Shabbos, well into the night,
So throw away your hammer, there’s nothing left to do,
Go on home and find the gift that’s waiting there for you.
Oh, it’s time to say Good Shabbos, ’cause all your work is done,
Gonna spend the day together with the Holy One,
Say a special blessing on a cup that’s filled with wine,
Man and his creator it’s a very special sign.
You can spend time with your family, you’ll study and you’ll pray,
Why not wait till after Shabbos, oh, those nails won’t run away,
So throw away your hammer, there’s nothing left to do,
Go on home and find the gift, it’s waiting there for you.
Oh, it’s time to say Good Shabbos, ’cause all your work is done,
Gonna spend the day together with the Holy One,
Say a special blessing on a cup that’s filled with wine,
Man and his creator, it’s a very very very very, very very very very
very special sign.
