MY STORY- Moshe Tischler- Composed By Shiffi Ochs- Modeh Ani
Is it just me who wonders
How my story will go,
At times I think about
A day when it might be told,
What will be said
What will it contain
After I’m gone
Will something remain,
What will my story be.
Is it just me who wonders
If I take more than I share,
I notice the strengths of others
And feel I barely compare,
I cannot walk
I seem out of place
And they pause
When they see my face,
What will my story be.
CHORUS:
The plot of any tale
Can’t be judged until it’s through
As the narratives weave together
It comes into view,
And every role that is described
Has a purpose it will meet
I may feel imperfect
But I make the story complete.
Is it just me who wonders
In truth I don’t think I am alone,
Each character created
Finds a path all on its own,
Sometimes it’s hidden
Sometimes it’s clear
But we all question
the reason we’re here,
What will my story be.
CHORUS:
The plot of any tale
Can’t be judged until it’s through
As the narratives weave together
It comes into view,
And every role that is described
Has a purpose it will meet
I may feel imperfect
But I make the story complete.
Is it just me who wonders
Why I was the one
Who was chosen,
The part I play is not easy
But I won’t let it
Make me feel broken,
I won’t set a limit
I’ll fight every day
When they see me
I hope that they’ll say…
That’s what my story can be.
CHORUS:
The plot of any tale
Can’t be judged until it’s through
As the narratives weave together
It comes into view,
And every role that is described
Has a purpose it will meet
I may feel imperfect
But I make the story complete.
The plot of any tale
Can’t be judged until it’s through
As the narratives weave together
It comes into view,
If I strive to do my best
In the role that I was placed…
The angels will sing
And the King of all Kings
Will gather me in His embrace.
And the King of all Kings
Will gather me in His embrace.
