As I Dance the Night Away

Getting ready to dance,

I go with only joy in my heart.

Sharing your happiness,

As your new life starts.

I want to add as much as I can,

To this beautiful night.

I want to give you a happy start,

So I dance with all my might.

And, as I dance the night away,

I will smile and I’ll say,

“I wish you the best in every way,

May your happiness always stay.”

I am truly happy at this time,

But, the sadness isn’t far behind,

I’m wondering, where is mine?

I am looking but it’s so hard to find!

As I dance the night away,

I just hope and I just pray,

I just ask and I just yearn,

“Oh when will it be my turn?”

So I ask you, won’t you please,

Pray that I should know with clarity,

And that soon I’ll find the one for me,

The one I’ll give to, indefinitely.

And then, I will dance the night away

And I will smile and I’ll say

“May Hashem answer all your prayers,

Just as He answered when I prayed.”

Dear Rebbe,

Dear Rebbe,

You’ve shown me how to see

The truth with clarity

In a deeper part of me

There’s a new reality

You’ve shown me how to be strong

It’s here that I belong

No matter what goes wrong

I find within the pain a song

You’ve shown me how to give

Just how to really live

I can move on only when

I learned how to forgive

You’ve shown me how to love

A hand that’s in a glove

Recognizing that it’s all

The hand that’s from above

You’ve shown me how to go

And taught me what I know

That if you plow and sow

Things will surely grow*

You’ve shown me how to be

All that I can be

when I have looked inside of me

I have found infinity

You’ve shown me what is right

And by following your sight

A flame in me ignites

Then the world is filled with light

You’ve shown me what is true

Salvation is in view

The darkness is almost through

We just have little more to do

I want to say thank you

I’m proud to be in your crew

Yes, I will continue

And once again, I will see you!
