Modah/Modeh Ani is a prayer said upon waking up in amazement that the spirit has returned from the dream world to the body! There are so many beautiful and joyful melodies for this prayer, but sometimes waking up and discovering oneself alive, while beautiful, is also kind of eerie and bizarre. Here's my slightly emo Modah Ani for you to try out when the right moment hits <3 

I thank you, vital and present Ruler/Spirit of the Universe, for you returned my spirit to me with compassion. Your faithfulness is abundant. 

מודה אני לפניך מלך חי וקיים, שהחזרת בי נשמתי בחמלה, רבה אמונתך
מודה אני לפניך רוח חי וקיימת שהחזרת בי נשמתי בחמלה רבה אמונתיך

Who is like you, Adonai, among all powers of the world? Who
is like you, glorious in holiness, Awesome in praises, doing
wonders? You redeem the one who wrestles, and make us whole
in the face of what overwhelms

We don't know who wrote this song, if you do, please let us know in the comments!

This song came to our community through folks who learned it at a Let My People Sing workshop taught by the farmers at Linke Fligl. 

This version is a collaborative audio recording created by NSP members. Folks sang individually into their phones and computers, and then we edited the audio tracks, weaving all the voices together. We created this recording for a Musical Tu Bishvat Seder in 2021, hosted by Hadar's Rising Song Institute.

Singers: Sarah Beth Alcabes, the Balis family, Jen Liebschutz, Lauren Spokane, Tyler Benjamin, Atid Kimelman, Miriam Ginsberg, Marni Loffman, Ike Swetlitz, Sofie Werthan, Sam Waxman, Akiva Wolberg, Ori Clemons, Elana Orbuch, Mira Smith, Aliza Wasserman, Yael Kiken, Becca Vogel, & Leah Muskin-Pierret
