Lyrics

בְּצוּר־יָרוּם מִמֶּנִּי תַנְחֵנִי Lead me higher! (Higher!) כִּי־הָיִיתָ מַחְסֶה לִי מִגְדַּל־עֹז מִפְּנֵי אוֹיֵב You are my tower! (My tower!) מִקְצֵה הָאָרֶץ אֵלֶיךָ אֶקְרָא From the ends of earth בַּעֲטֹף לִבִּי When my heart gives way בְּצוּר־יָרוּם מִמֶּנִּי תַנְחֵנִי Let Hashem guide me כִּי־הָיִיתָ מַחְסֶה לִי מִגְדַּל־עֹז מִפְּנֵי אוֹיֵב I'm walking His way בְּצוּר־יָרוּם מִמֶּנִּי תַנְחֵנִי Lead me higher! (Higher!) כִּי־הָיִיתָ מַחְסֶה לִי מִגְדַּל־עֹז מִפְּנֵי אוֹיֵב You are my tower! (My tower!) בְּצוּר־יָרוּם מִמֶּנִּי תַנְחֵנִי Lead me higher! (Higher!) כִּי־הָיִיתָ מַחְסֶה לִי מִגְדַּל־עֹז מִפְּנֵי אוֹיֵב You are my tower! (My tower!) אָגוּרָה בְאׇהׇלְךָ עוֹלָמִים אֶחֱסֶה בְסֵתֶר כְּנָפֶיךָ סֶּלָה In Your shelter, let me stay בְּצוּר־יָרוּם מִמֶּנִּי תַנְחֵנִי Lead me higher, lead the way בְּצוּר־יָרוּם מִמֶּנִּי תַנְחֵנִי Lead me higher! (Higher!) כִּי־הָיִיתָ מַחְסֶה לִי מִגְדַּל־עֹז מִפְּנֵי אוֹיֵב You are my tower! (My tower!) בְּצוּר־יָרוּם מִמֶּנִּי תַנְחֵנִי Lead me higher!

A psalm for a name

Someone you love, and one thing about them. We write a psalm for that name and sing it: Hebrew verse from Tehillim, the English written for that person, in a week. It is not a template and it is not a cure — if it is not right we sing it again once.
