Sabbath Prayer
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
May the lord protect and defend you
May he always shield you from shame
May you come to be
In israel a shining name
May you be like ruth and like esther
May you be deserving of praise
Strengthen them, oh lord
And keep them from the strangers' ways
May god bless you and grant you long lives
(May the lord fulfill our sabbath prayer for you)
May god make you good mothers and wives
(May he send you husbands who will care for you)
May the lord protect and defend you
May the lord preserve you from pain
Favor them, oh lord, with happiness and peace
Oh, hear our sabbath prayer
Amen
