Hallelujah, Amen

Amen.

Amen. Amen. Amen. Amen.

Amen.

 

This is not where this prayer ends.

Think again.

Amen.

This is where we ask

If these words,

Have been heard,

If what we say

Makes its way

From here to heaven.

If what we say

Makes its way

From here to our hearts.

If what we say

Makes its way

From here to our deeds.

Amen, please G-d,

Amen.

 

Holy Holy, Amen.

Glory Glory, Amen.

Hallelujah, Amen.

Have these words

Been heard?

 

Amen

Is when

We begin

To make our prayers real.

Get out of your seat,

Get up on your feet,

Go out in the street –

Don’t make me repeat –

Amen is when we begin to make our prayers real.

When we begin to heal

And dare to feel

That we are the answer,

We are the blessing,

We are the voice of G-d’s majesty.

We are the tool,

We are the tool,

We are the tool of miracles.

Amen.

Amen. Amen. Amen. Amen.

Hallelujah, Amen.

 

This is not where this prayer ends.

Think again.
