How lovely are your tents, O Jacob, your dwelling-places, O Israel! In your abundant lovingkindness, O God, let me

enter your house, reverently to worship in Your holy temple. Adonai, I love Your house, the place where Your glory

dwells. So I would worship with humility, I would seek blessing in the presence of God, my maker. To You, then,

Adonai, does my prayer go forth. May this be a time of joy and favor. In Your great love, O God, answer me with

Your saving truth.

L’hagid ki yashar Adonai tzuri v’lo avlatah bo. .ה בו ת י ולא עול , צור ר יי י יש יד כ להגA Psalm, a song for Shabbat. It is good to praise Adonai; to sing hymns to Your name, O Most High, to

proclaim Your steadfast love at daybreak, Your faithfulness each night with a ten-stringed harp, with voice and

lyre together. You have gladdened me by Your deeds, Adonai; I shout for joy at Your handiwork. How great

are Your works, Adonai, how very profoud Your designs! A brute cannot know, a fool cannot understand this:

The righteous bloom like a date-palm; they thrive like a cedar in Lebanon; planted in the house of Adonai, they

flourish in the courts of our God. In old age they still produce fruit; they are full of sap and freshness, attesting

that Adonai is upright, my Rock, in whom there is no wrong. (Psalm 92:1-6, 13-15).

And you shall bind them for a sign upon your hand. And they shall be for frontlets between your eyes. And you shall write

Exodus 31:16-17

People often wonder why when we say we have silent prayer we often have music, because the silent prayer is not necessarily for us to be silent. Rather, it is the time when the voices of our ancestors are silenced, so that the unscripted prayers of each individual worshipper might rise. Silent prayer means that the siddur is silenced, while the prayers of our hearts are at last, if not

quietly, given voice. -Zoe Klein

You spread out the heavens and established the earth; You are our God; there is none else. In truth You alone are our

sovereign God, as it is written: Know this day and take it to heart: the Eternal One is God in the heavens above and

on the earth below; there is none else.And it has been said: The Eternal God shall rule over all the earth; On that day

You shall be One and Your name shall be One.

When I die give whats left of me away to children and old men. And if you need to cry cry for your brother walking the stree beside you. And when you need me, put your arms

around anyone and give them what you need to give me. Love doesn’t die, people do. So when all that’s left of me is love give me away.

-Merrit Malloy

Mourner's Kaddish We recall the loved ones whom death has taken from us . . .

We remember those whose names were mentioned, those whose

names remain unmentioned but are in our thoughts, and all those for

22

whom there is no one left to say Kaddish. Loving God, we praise Your name:

Yit’gadal v’yit’kadash sh’mei rabah. B’alma div’ra chirutei, v’yam’lich mal’chutei b’chayeichon uv’yomeichon uv’chayei d’chol beit yisrael, ba’agalah uviz’man kariv, v’imru: Amen.

Let the glory of God be extolled, let God’s great name be hallowed in the world whose creation God willed. May

God rule in our own day, in our own lives, and in the life of all Israel, and let us say: Amen. Let God’s great name be

23

praised for ever and ever. Beyond all praises, songs, and adorations that we can utter is the Holy One, the Blessed

One, whom yet we glorify, honor and exalt. And let us say: Amen. For us and for all Israel, may the blessing of peace

and the promise of life come true, and let us say: Amen. May the One who causes peace to reign in the high heavens,

let peace descend on us, on all Israel, and all the world and let us say: Amen. May the Source of peace send peace to

all who mourn, and comfort to all who are bereaved. Amen.
