My Heart - Yishai Ribo

My heart is split in two

What the maidservant could not see by the water

Like a storm from the sea, it pounds

Like Miriam's timbrel, it beats

And there is no cure in the world

My heart surrenders

Stumbles, can no longer stand on its feet

Just a wreck with no purpose

And the sky is like a wall to me

How can I pass through the sea on dry ground

CHORUS:

And only You can turn my mourning into dancing

To purify the sand

To soften all in me

And only You know how to approach my heart

You lessen any pain within me

You heal my heart

My heart is split in two

Half of it is guilty, and half of it is for the sake of Heaven

Like a storm from the sea, it pounds

Like Miriam's timbrel, it beats

And there is no cure in the world for the heart

CHORUS:

And only You can turn my mourning into dancing

To purify the sand

To soften all in me

And only You know how to approach my heart

You lessen any pain within me

You heal my heart

And there is still a foe who bothers the flock

And there is no envoy who would scream for God

Only I before a whole sea, and a broken heart

CHORUS:

And only You can turn my mourning into dancing

To purify the sand

To soften all in me

And only You know how to approach my heart

You lessen any pain within me

You heal my heart

And only You can turn my mourning into dancing

To purify the sand

To soften all in me

And only You know how to approach my heart

You lessen any pain within me

You heal my heart

In distress I called on the LORD;
the Lord answered me and brought me relief.

The LORD is on my side,
I have no fear;
what can man do to me?

May the Merciful One, Who answers the poor, answer us. May the Merciful One Who answers the broken-hearted, answer us. May the Merciful One Who answers the broken in spirit, answer us. Merciful One, answer us; Merciful One, have pity; Merciful One, redeem, Merciful One, save, Merciful One, have compassion on us, now, speedily, and very soon.

I shall await the LORD,

I shall entreat his favor, I shall ask Him to grant my tongue eloquence. In the midst of the congregated nation

I shall sing of His strength; I shall burst out in joyous melodies for his works. The thoughts in man's heart are his to arrange, but the tongue's eloquence comes from the Lord. O LORD, open my lips, so that my mouth may declare Your praise.

Have compassion upon Your works, and rejoice in Your works; and let those who trust in You say— when You justify those borne by You— “Be sanctified, [our] Master over all Your works.” For those who sanctify You are themselves hallowed in Your holiness; becoming to the Holy One is the glory of those who are holy.

For we are Your people; and You are our God. We are Your children; and You are our Father. We are Your servants; and You are our Master. We are Your congregation; and You are our Portion. We are Your inheritance; and You are our Destiny. We are Your flock; and You are our Shepherd. We are Your vineyard; and You are our Keeper. We are Your work; and You are our Creator. We are Your dear ones and You are our Beloved. We are Your treasure; and You are our God. We are Your people; and You are our King. We are Your distinguished ones; and You are our Distinction.

You are my God and I will praise You;
You are my God and I will extol You.

And all shall come to serve You and bless Your glorious Name, and throughout the isles they shall declare Your righteousness. And peoples will seek You, who knew You not before; and they will praise You, those who live in every part of the earth, and they will say, always, “Magnified be Adonoy.” And they will offer to You their sacrifices, and they will abandon their idols, and they will be humiliated with their graven images, and they will turn with unanimous accord to worship You. And they will fear You— as long as sun is upon them— those who seek Your Presence, and they will realize the power of Your Kingship, and they will teach— those who have gone astray— understanding [of God]. And they will speak of Your might, and they will uplift You causing You to be uplifted above all, and they will fervently beseech Your Presence and crown You with a crown of glory. And the mountains will burst out in joyous song, and the isles will exult in Your Kingship, and they will accept the yoke of Your kingdom, and they will exalt You in the assembly of peoples. Those from far-off lands will hear of this and they will come, and they will tender unto You the crown of sovereignty.

lessed is He, our God, Who created us for His glory, and set us apart from those who go astray; and gave us the Torah of truth, and eternal life He implanted within us

Human being, go up, go

For you have great strength.
You have wings of wind,
Wings of knightly eagles.

Don’t deny them lest they deny you.
Seek them out, seek them out, human being
And they’ll come to you right away
