WELCOME HOME- Shloime Dachs- Composed By Yitzy Waldner, Lyrics By Yechiel Zagelbaum- Acheinu
All
Through the long wandering years
Facing
Her fears
Searching for a path to choose
Strange
As it may seem
The answer to her dreams
In the faith
Whose ancient words ring true.
Called
By a friend she hardly knew
Leading her to
Experience a Shabbos meal
The glowing candlelight
Zemiros through the night
Her eyes
Opened wide
Her soul had come alive.
CHORUS:
Reaching out
Showing our love for every Jew
Faces shine
Beauty revealed in all we do
With emotion, we pray
Finding meaning in each day
Content,
She smiled
As the candles seemed to say
Welcome home.
Spirits soar
Every Mitzvah is enhanced
Tears of joy
At a Simcha when we dance
With Hashem, we know
We’re secure, never alone
Content,
She smiled
As the candles seemed to say
Welcome home.
Filled
With a pure heart that yearned
To teach and learn
How to serve the One above
To obey His commands
To do and understand
And to keep His Torah
With love.
Nights
She lies awake and contemplates
Choices she made
Direction given to her life
The candles radiate
Sweet sounds emanate
Shabbos at home
A family of her own.
CHORUS:
Reaching out
Showing our love for every Jew
Faces shine
Beauty revealed in all we do
With emotion, we pray
Finding meaning in each day
Content,
She’d smile
As the candles seemed to say
Welcome home.
Spirits soar
Every Mitzvah is enhanced
Tears of joy
At a Simcha when we dance
With Hashem, we know
We’re secure, never alone
Content,
She’d smile
As the candles seemed to say
Welcome home.
(FIRST HALF OF CHORUS INSTRUMENTALLY, THEN:)
From a spark
Inside
A flame will soon ignite
With Moshiach
Together
With open arms, we say…
Welcome home.
With Moshiach
Together
With open arms, we say…
Welcome home.
Welcome home…
Welcome, welcome home.
