Watch over Me - Lev Tahor

The year 2014, there is a boy with no mother by his side.

«Can you tell me the story?

When tragedy befell upon you in your time?

«Daddy, were you really there?»

he asked with a tear in his eye.

«My dear son, I was in dispair, praying, ‘Oh don’t let me die.'

«Then the hand of G-d lifted me up, on wings of faith and mercy

Teaching me never to take life for granted

G-d please watch over me, watch over me.

«A short while after, red, white and blue on every house and every car.

United forever, just remember where you’re from and who you are.»

«Daddy, what happened to those, who weren’t as lucky as you?»

«My dear son, may G-d bless their soul, there’s one thing that I know is true.

«That the hand of G-d lifted them up, on wings of faith and mercy

Up to heaven above, they will surely be sent

G-d please watch over me, watch over me.»

«Daddy, before you kiss me goodnight, I’m starting to see clearly.

That mommy dear, she will be alright, near G-d is where she will be.

«For the hand of G-d lifted her up, on wings of faith and mercy

Up to heaven above she will surely be sent

Mommy watch over me, watch over me.»

To heaven, to heaven, to heaven above

Teaching me never to take life for granted

G-d please watch over me

Mommy watch over me

Hashem (g-d) shemor (watch) es nafshi (my soul)
