To Be A Jew
In the heart of ancient lands, a faith so bright,
Judaism’s core beliefs, a guiding light.
One God, eternal, just, and kind,
In every heart and soul, we find.
The Torah’s wisdom, sacred and true,
A covenant old, yet ever new.
With mitzvot, commandments to uphold,
A life of meaning, values bold.
Shabbat’s peace, a weekly rest,
A time for family, love expressed.
From sundown’s glow to stars’ ascent,
A holy day, divinely sent.
Tikkun Olam, to heal the world,
With acts of kindness, love unfurled.
Justice, mercy, in every deed,
A better world, the ultimate creed.
Through trials faced, and joys embraced,
A resilient spirit, never erased.
In unity, the people stand,
A timeless bond, hand in hand.
Duties of a Jew, sacred and clear, To live with purpose, year by year. Charity given, with open heart, Aiding the needy, doing our part.
Kosher laws, we faithfully keep, In every meal, traditions deep. Daily prayers, with tefillin bound, In words of faith, our souls are found.
Education, a lifelong quest, Learning Torah, striving for the best. Integrity in business, honest and fair, In every action, showing we care.
Treatment of the poor, with dignity and grace, Seeing God’s image in every face. Tzedakah, charity, a duty we embrace, To uplift the needy, in every place.
Compassion and justice, hand in hand, Supporting the poor, as God commands. Sharing resources, simplifying our ways, To ensure all thrive, in our days.
