Shema Yisroel

Back



Legend tells that after the Holocaust, R. Yosef Kahaneman zt'l , the Ponevezhe Rov began looking for Jewish children who had survived the war. It was known that some of the children had ended up in churches and were being raised as Christians. The Rov encountered one church that denied the existence and presence of Jewish children within their midst... He was granted permission to enter the children's quarters to inspect for himself -- when he entered he began calling out "Shema Yisroel" and instinctively many of the children raised their hands to cover their eyes and started calling out "mama! mama!"

This is like the voice that awakened my Jewish soul.. it was a still, small voice but awakened the love in my heart... bringing me on a long journey out of the faith I was raised in and back into the arms of my people... Shema Yisrael... the song of my heart...Baruch HaShem for his mercy in bringing me back home!

BS"D ..."Create me a clean heart, O God; and renew a stedfast spirit within me"... (Psalem 51:12) "...and rebuke with moral instruction - is The Path of Life" (Mishlei 6:23) May Hashem shine his light on U always. :o)

Shalom! Luckily I found the lyrics with guitar chords and I wish to share it to anyone who are interested. It is in a text format so it should open with most computers running windows. Send me a message to get a free copy. Thank you. (happyfeet)
