Where Answers Are Found (Psalm 95) feat. Terri Sunflower

The song is a prayer to bring Hersh and the other hostages home.  Lyrics are below. 

It is inspired in part by Psalm 126, which some Jews recite after group meals on Shabbat and holidays.

Lyrics
Chairs sitting empty
In Bakka and Tel Aviv
Photos in Los Angeles
Hold collective grief

"I love you" and "I'm sorry"
Two texts were not enough
Hersh was taken hostage
Forced on to a truck

Bring him home
Bring him home
Bring him home
Bring him home
Bring them all home

I want to see Rachel smile
The sparkle in Jon's eyes
Sisters hugging brother
A dream that’s realized

Soup is on the table
Steam rising, homemade bread
Sitting all together
Laughing, overfed

Bring him home
Bring him home
Bring him home
Bring him home
Bring them all home

Stop the spread of tears
Time to harvest joy
Our voices will carry him home
Our voices will carry them home

Rachel chants this daily
We love you. Stay strong. Stay alive
Refusing to seek comfort
She prays that he’ll survive

Bring him home
Bring him home
Bring him home
Bring him home
Bring them all home

Bring Him Home feat. Nettie Wolkind
