Adonai, Adonai, Adonenu
Asher T’nah Hodcha Al Ha-Shamayim
Translation: Oh Lord Our Lord, How excellent is Your name
You Who has set Your Glory above the Heavens
When I consider Your Heavens
The work of Your fingers
The moon and the stars which You ordain
What is man that You are mindful of him
And the son of man that You visit him?
(Chorus)
O Lord, our Lord
How excellent is Your Name in all of the earth
O Lord, how excellent is Your Name
(repeat)
And the avenger You still with the praises of singers
The infants and babes whom You ordain
What is man that You are mindful of him
And the son of man that You visit him?
(Chorus)
Your name given so freely for us to claim the name of Jesus
You came a little lower than the angels to humble yourself
Only to be exalted, exalted
(Chorus)
(Counter Medley)
Adonai, Adonenu
Yeshua, bless Your Holy name
We love Your name

The Lord is my shepherd
I shall not want
He maketh me to lie down in green pastures
He leadeth me by the still waters
He restoreth my soul
He leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for His Name’s sake
Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death
I will fear no evil
For Thou art with me
Thy rod and Thy staff they comfort me
Thou preparest a table for me in the presence of mine enemies
Thou anointest my head with oil
My cup runneth over
Surely goodness and mercy
Shall follow me all the days of my life
And I will dwell in the house of The Lord
Forever and ever
Prince of Peace

Grandpa studied Torah from the time he was a boy
And until the day he passed away it was just his highest joy
And sometimes I think about what Grandpa would have said
Had he heard how I interpreted these words I’m sure he read
Chorus:
Unto us a child is born, unto us a Son is given
And the increase of His peace shall have no end
And His name is Wonderful, Counselor, Almighty G-d
Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace
Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace
As a young man I would meet some people who would claim
The Prince of Peace already came, Y’shua was His name
But that is not what I’d been taught, I thought “How could that be?”
‘Til one day by grace He found a place for His peace to reign in me
(Chorus)
A Jew Born Anew

I had a Bar Mitzvah when I was thirteen
Greatest Bar Mitzvah that you’ve ever seen.
The temple on the corner of Mayfield and Lee
Was filled with my friends and my family
All of them as proud can be,
With catering far as the eye could see,
Complete with a chopped liver statue of me.
Now they ask me how I can go so wrong
And why all of a sudden I’m singing this song,
They say “Son you’re deserting your fathers of old,
So why don’t you just come back to the fold,
You’re such a nice boy or weren’t you told
That when you were born they broke the mold
So whaddya need with this stuff ya been sold?”
But it’s a far, far better thing that I do,
Than I have ever done, when I believed what they said was true
That Yeshua is God’s only son
Well I’ve done many things and I don’t do a few
But this one thing I do makes Me a Jew Born Anew,
Yes, through and through I’m a Jew Born Anew
So Hallelujah to Yeshua from a Jew who never knew ya,
Could come to die for a schmo like I was,
Just so I could win the prize
and be with my Messiah in the skies!
They say on Bar Mitzvah day I became a man,
I’ve tried to live that way, done the best that I can,
But I’ve been worried since way back when
‘Cause I’ve never done anything great since then,
And though I could live ‘til a hundred and ten
And never have need of a fountain pen,
I might never succeed in the sight of men,
And they won’t let me get Bar Mitzvahed again!
But it’s a far, far better thing that I do,
Than I have ever done, when I believed what they said was true
That Yeshua is God’s only son
Well I’ve done many things and I don’t do a few
But this one thing I do makes Me a Jew Born Anew,
Yes, through and through I’m a Jew Born Anew
So Hallelujah to Yeshua from a Jew who never knew ya’,
Could come to die for a real schlemiel
When I couldn’t tell you were the long awaited Holy One of Israel!
So all of you who don’t know Yeshua, let me introduce Him to ya’.
He’s the blessed Messiah, the Lion of Judah
Who wants to do to ya what He did to me!
He came to live in a schlep like I was
Yep, it’s true on Christmas morn,
The truest Jew that ever was, was born!
Lai, lai, lai, lai, lai,.............
..........that’s no lie, lie, lie, lie, lie, lie, lie, lie,
a Jew Born Anew Am I!!!!!!!!!!
For Zion’s Sake
(Isaiah 62)

“O Jerusalem, Jerusalem,” hear Yeshua cry,
“How I longed to gather you to Me!”
“O Jerusalem, Jerusalem,” Messiah wept for you
So should we not be weeping too?
For Zion’s sake, I will not keep silent
For Zion’s sake, I’ll not hold my peace
For Zion’s sake, for Y’rushalayim
I will not rest, I will not rest
I’ve set watchmen on your walls, O Jerusalem
They shall never hold their peace
Day or night, all you who call upon the Lord
Call upon the Lord for Zion’s sake
I’ve set watchmen on your walls, O Jerusalem
They shall never hold their peace
Day or night, all you who call upon the Lord, take no rest,
Give Him no rest, till He makes Jerusalem a praise in the earth
A praise in the earth
For Zion’s sake, I will not keep silent
For Zion’s sake, I’ll not hold my peace
For Zion’s sake, for Y’rushalayim
I will not rest
I will not rest
I will not rest
I will not rest
We Being Many
Words & Music by Marty Goetz

And we being many are one body in Christ, in Christ
And everyone members of one another
Loving each other, with God as our Father
Who loves us as a mother loves her newborn child
We are His Bride, taken from His side
When blood and water fell from the broken heart of Israel
See the Lord provide the precious Lamb who died
The great “I Am”” who cried “Eli, Eli, Lama Azavtani,
Abba, El Shaddai, to God I give my life”
(In Harmony)
And we being many are one body in Christ, in Christ
And everyone members of one another
Loving each other, with God as our Father
Who loves us as a mother loves her newborn child
(Both verses sung together)
We are His Bride, taken from His side
When blood and water fell from the broken heart of Israel
See the Lord provide the precious Lamb who died
The great “I Am”” who cried “Eli, Eli, Lama Azavtani,
Abba, El Shaddai, to God I give my life”
And we being many are one body in Christ, in Christ
And everyone members of one another
Loving each other, with God as our Father
Who loves us as a mother loves her newborn child
Who loves us as a mother loves her newborn child
I Call You Friend
(John 14 & 15)
Words & Music By Marty Goetz
©1992 Singin’ in the Reign Music/ASCAP
I call you friend, that’s what you are
All that I do I share with you
I have no secrets, I have no need
To keep them to myself, for I tell you to the end
I call you my friend
You call me master, and so I am
All that I do you will do too
Secret’s I’ll whisper, and what you hear
You’ll shout aloud out to a world that’s near it’s end
I call you my friend
Peace I leave with you, my peace I give to you
Truly I say to you, you’ll have tribulation
But have no fear dear one, be of good cheer
Truly I have overcome, you too will overcome
So, come my friend
I know who you are
Before you were I knew of you
You’ve so many secrets, you’ve so many needs
Don’t keep them to yourself, no one to help you in the end.
Just call my name, I’m always the same
I search for all who will claim the love I send
So I can call them friend
Say, can I call you my friend?
Chanukah
Music and Lyrics by Marty Goetz
©1997 Singin’ in the Reign Music/ASCAP
Make my life Your temple
L-rd at this season start
To pull down every idol I have raised up in my heart
Chorus:
On this Chanukah
On this Feast of Dedication
I dedicate myself to You
Take my defiled altar
Come and cleanse and come repair
So every time I falter I can run to meet you there
Chorus
Bridge:
And with every candle on the menorah
That illuminates the night
Comes a prayer You’d kindle
In me Y’shua
A desire for Your fire, for Your light
Make of my mortal body
A house worthy of Your name
Rid me of what’s ungodly and every hidden thing of shame
Chorus to Bridge
Take my supply of oil
Not enough to burn long I fear
But, oh how I pray I may one day say “A great miracle happened here!”
Chorus
Let Us Run
Music and Lyrics by Marty Goetz
Singin’ In The Reign Music © 1996
Can you see how we are surrounded
By so great a cloud of witnesses
Those who paid the price
The supreme sacrifice
Those of whom this world was not worthy
Chorus:
Let us run, run, run the race with endurance
Laying aside every weight
Casting aside every sin
Let us run, run, fixing our eyes on the Son
Looking to Him, finishing what we’ve begun
Let us run!
And you can see now we are entrusted
With continuing what others started
They have passed the baton
Straight and fast, til we’ve won
We will run to Him who is Holy
Chorus:
So let us run........
Bridge:
Oh and yes, there are some who have stumbled, fallen
G-d only knows, I am one
Still I press toward the goal
For the L-rd who’s callin’ me
He’s gone before, He’s my reward
When I am done, let us run!!
More Than The Watchman

Did I leave you? Did you leave me?
One of us wandered away
But now I need you to answer my plea
Though I don’t know what I’m askin’
And I know even less what I expect you to say, but...
More than the Watchman for the morning
More than the evenin’ for the dawning
I wait for you, I wait for you
By now it’s quite clear I don’t know wrong from right
And on goodness I’m makin’ no claim
But when you are here and we struggle all night
All I know is I can’t let you go ‘til you bless me
And change my name, and.....
More than the Watchman for the morning
More than the evenin’ for the dawning
I wait for you, my soul waits for you
I miss you so much I don’t know what to do
Don’t you know that I love you, must I show you too
Here is my mind for you to read
All I need is your touch, only one, only one
For you’re the only one from whom I need
Forgiveness just one more time
You’re the only one who had to bleed
For my lack of understanding, take me back
Take my hand in your way so sublime, for.....
More than the Watchman for the morning
More than the evenin’ for the dawning
I’m blinkin at the sun, I’m starin’ at the moon!
I wait for you, please come for me soon!
