Neal Katz: Music
Or Chadash
OR CHADASH
music & lyrics by Alan Cook and Neal Katz
Hebrew text from Yotzer
Or Chadash a new light will shine
Al Tsiyon Tair - on Jerusalem
Bringing us home - to the land of our people
Or Chadash - and a new light will shine
Unto Avram you issued a command
Lech Lecha - and I'll show you a new land
And a covenant was sworn,
that our nation would be born
And we'd grow to be numerous as the sand
Driven away for hundreds of years
In a thousand lands, we cried a million tears
With our heart turned toward the skies,
we looked homeward with our eyes
And prayed that our return would soon draw near
And now how glorious it seems
We've come home to the land of our dreams
Over the mountains the sun rises high
It's a new day, it's our homeland, it's our time....
