I mean, really. Whats not to love?

 

[rylah]

Shadowing his tribe , without shadowing His love
Holds out his wand to whoever opens the hand
Doesn't hide an eye from above the stock of His pasture
Even when were as broken vessels, we're still the vessel of His favor

All of Him is continuous love
His House is crowded to wide
Finds a forgiveness for us
Not only in the hour of Nei'ila
To You a moment of silence and glory

He's all doing and governing
And there's no beginning to His beginning
Even the singing is like the sand of the sea
Only a little portion to His praise
Beyond the letter of the law governs the world
And before the angels demands for the well of His nation
He's going to:

"...to give them glory instead of ashes,
oil of joy instead of mourning,
a mantle of praise instead of a feeble spirit" (Isaiah 61)

Hanan Ben Ari - From You to me
I am a turtle without a house
You have removed the roof from above my head
Fish without water / looking for You and in vain
Bitter as wine / Trapped as a lion in a grille
Cloud pouring water, I'm not even getting wet

I ran away from You to me-and found nothing
Standing in the doorway, not yet daring to knock.

Fall in the eyes / I walk like a wanderer
I have a sign of Cain on my forehead / looking for You and in vain.
In the meantime in the field You're disguised as simple folk
Without a cloak without skies, hiding concealed G-d

I ran away from You to me-and found nothing
You're on the other side of the door, trying to keep quiet.

Do not hide Your face from me, You're my hope,
Because I'm lovesick, do not hide Your face.

I ran away from You to me-and found nothing
Standing in the doorway, not daring to knock
I ran away from You to me and found nothing
Roaring at the door, You suddenly get out

Thus said Hashem: I am going to take the stick of Yosef—which is in the hand of Efraim—and of the tribes of Yisrael associated with him, and I will place the stick of Yehuda upon it and make them into onestick; they shall be joined in My hand
Ezekiel 37:19 (The Israel Bible™)

Hear the verse in Hebrew

koh a-MAR a-do-NAI e-lo-HEEM hi-NAY a-NEE lo-KAY-akh et AYTZ yo-SAYF a-SHER

Living Ezekiel's Words
Yechezkel (Ezekiel) again prophecies about the ingathering of the exiles. He stresses that this a promise for all of Israel; not only for the members of the kingdom of Yehuda (Judea), but also for the tribes from kingdom of Yisrael (Israel) whose people have been considered lost since the Assyrian conquest of the northern kingdom. During the final redemption, all twelve tribes of Israel will return to the Promised Land, and they will re-unite to form onenation unified under one leader. Today, Jews are returning to Eretz Yisrael (the Land of Israel) from all over the world, and are joining together to reestablish the Nation of Israel in the Land of Israel.
