A Love Song between the Jewish People and G-d

I knew from the moment We first met
that We would sing love songs to each other for an eternity as a duet,
No matter what tragedy would beset
my love for You I would never forget.

I’d go hungry and lose all sleep
and I never be ashamed for
You to see me weep.
There is nothing for You I wouldn’t do
so that you know my love for You is always true.

I’d be a slave in Egypt for You
no matter the whips, no matter I would be black and blue

I’d be scattered and wander the globe
I never let go of my prayer robe
no matter how long my exile
they could never make my love defile
my love for You would get me through
no matter the ghetto street and avenue

no flame, no pain, no torture, no death
could stop me from loving You even with my last breath –
not having You is a living death

No! There is nothing I won’t do
To have my Love with You renew.
No! There is nothing I won’t do
To have my Love with You renew.
