The wisdom and legacy of Judaism and our liturgy offer us guidance in all aspects of our lives, both spiritual and secular.
Many of us, however, separate our worship experience from our "outside" lives.
Arnie's workshop session, "Personal G_dSpeak in Prayer" encourages participants to draw on their everyday experiences to interpret and find meaning in our rich liturgy in a blend of contemporary music, familiar language and original text.
"Elohai" is the result of such a synthesis. Enjoy
Elohai Nishama

Elohai Nishama Shenatata bi
How pure and wonderful the soul You gave to me
Atah Vrata, You created it
Atah yitzarta You shaped it
Atah nifachta bi You breathed it into me
Vatah mishamra bi kirbi –
With each word and every prayer you make me whole
Please remember – protect my soul
