POTEYACH ET YADECHA
Al ta’azveini, tachzik li tayad,
Yoter midai zman nisharti levad.
P’kach li einayim lirot ktzat shamayim –
Ladaat: ata ve’ani – zeh echad.
Al tishkecheini, titen li mazal,
Shnayim shehalev bli harosh mevulbal.
Bacharti eilecha umah biladecha.
Shma et koli mei’achshav ad bichlal.
Poteyach et yadecha
Umasbiya lechol chai ratzon.
Tein mei’or’cha, hakol poh Shelchah.
Lihyot karov karov. (x2)
Al tarchikeini, halachti maspik.
Eich neshamah yecholah lehachzik?
Tzamei lemayim, chashuch poh adayin,
Lo heiramti yadayim – yesh li Otchah.
Al tashlicheini, gam lo binurai,
Veten chelkeinu kol yom halevai.
Lechah hasfatayim, rega o shnayim,
Nafshi beinetayim kotevet Lechah.
Poteyach et yadecha
Umasbi’a lechol chai ratzon.
Tein mei’or’cha, hakol poh shelchah.
Lih’yot karov karov.
Poteyach et yadecha
Umasbiya lechol chai ratzon.
Ten mei’orchah, hakol poh shelchah.
Lihyot karov hayom.

OPEN YOUR HAND
O, do not leave me, hold on to my hand,
For too long I've lingered alone.
Open my eyes to see some of Heaven –
To know You and I – together are one.
O, don’t forget me, grant me good fortune:
Two whose hearts minus mind are confused.
I made my choice in You, what am I without You?
O hear my voice, from now and for all time.
You open Your hand
And satisfy the desire of every living creature.
Give of Your light, for all here is Yours.
O, to be really up close (to You).
Cast me not away, enough have I walked.
How is a soul to carry on forth?
Thirsty for water, while in here it’s dark:
I’ve not given up – I have You with me.
O, do not leave me, not even in youth,
And give us our daily portion in truth.
Our lips give to You a moment or two,
In the meantime, my spirit is writing to You.
You open Your hand
And satisfy the desire of every living creature.
Give of Your light, for all here is Yours.
O, to be really up close (to You).
You open Your hand
And satisfy the desire of every living creature.
Give of Your light, for all here is Yours.
O, to come really close, today.
