ZAMERU, Text from Psalm 98, melody by Yoni Avi Battat
זַמְּרוּ‭ ‬לַה’ ‬בְּכִנּוֹר‭ ‬
בְּכִנּוֹר‭ ‬וְקוֹל‭ ‬זִמְרָה

Zameru ladonai bekhinor
Bekhinor vekol zimrah

Praise God with a kinor (instrument), 
with a kinor and the voice of song

Zameru - Yoni Avi Battat

Well I don’t know where this road is leading
And I don’t know how I got here, Still
I shout in joy, for the voice I’m heeding
Says I know I will
I know I will

Now I don’t know where this body’s going
For the night is dark and I feel the chill
But I shout in joy ‘cause a warm wind blowing
Says I know I will
I know I will

Parts 1 & 2:
I will I will I will I will I know I will

Bass:
Will I will I will uh-huh I know I will

Descant:
I will, yes I know I will
I will, yes I know

I Will - Dodie Whitaker

lyrics
בריך רחמנא 
מלכא דעלמא 
מריה דהאי פיתא 

Brikh raḥamana 
Malka d'alma 
Ma'arey d'hi (oh!) pita 

You are the source of 
Life for all that is 
And your blessing 
Flows through me

Oh lord prepare me
To be a sanctuary
Pure and holy, tried and true
And with thanksgiving, I'll be a living
Sanctuary for you

Oh lord prepare me
To be a revolutionary
Bold and tender, tried and true
And with each other, 
We'll build another
World together
For me and you

(bonus verse written by iris brilliant, andrew meeker, sarah abbott, margot seigle & becky jones, with edits from Aly Halpert / summer 2015)

Jem Bendell - To Criticise Deep Adaptation, Start Here

Hashiveinu, sung by Linke Fligl pod

Michael Dowd died October 2023. This soundcloud list is a substantial part of his legacy. Here he shares, via his voice, the major books, blogs, and other texts that instructed his own worldview shift into recognizing the multiple causes of the civilizational collapse underway and wisdom for moving into a postdoom perspective of clarity, calm, and compassionate love-in-action. As a Postdoom pastor, Michael aimed to support others in deeply adapting to abrupt climate change and societal and ecological breakdowns.
