SOMEONE’S CHILD- Sung & Composed By Baruch Levine- Touched By A Nigun

The sky was sunny, a sea of blue
A seamless picture with the perfect view
Then jets fly above, a deafening roar
Eretz Yisroel in midst of a war.

A father and mother, with two of their boys
Laughing and playing till they heard the noise
High up above, preparing to fight
Our brothers in battle, Klal Yisroel unite.

Each and every Yid is a link in a chain
Areivim zeh l’zeh, it’s how we remain
Looking down from heaven, each one makes Him smile
He may not be your own but he’s still Someone’s Child.

Standing nearby, they see a woman cry.
They approach her and ask, “Can you tell us why?
Is your child at war? What is it – what’s wrong?”
They try to console her, to help her be strong.

“No, it’s not my son who has gone to fight
See, I know that my child – he will be alright.”
She pointed to heaven; through her tears she smiled
“It may not be mine, but it’s still Someone’s child.”

Each and every Yid is a link in a chain
Areivim zeh l’zeh, it’s how we remain
Looking down from heaven, each one makes Him smile
He may not be your own but he’s still Someone’s Child.

A gentle word, perhaps a warm embrace
Let us bring joy to that child’s face.
We must care for them all, each daughter and son
For all of G-d’s children belong to someone.

Each and every Yid is a link in a chain
Areivim zeh l’zeh, it’s how we remain.
Looking down from heaven, each one makes Him smile
He may not be your own but he’s still Someone’s Child.
