Sung in Biblical Hebrew


After the October 7 massacre, we prayed and prayed for the deliverance of the hostages During their captivity, the Lord laid Psalm 40 on my heart. I've finally finished the song today. This song is dedicated to the survivors and their familes. My prayer is for healing and restoration of all involved. True victory over the enemy.

For those who never made it home, my heart cries for them and their families.

May God's Kingdom come. And soon.

קַוֹּה קִוִּיתִי יְהוָה וַיֵּט אֵלַי וַיִּשְׁמַע שַׁוְעָתִ

Ka-vo ki-vi’-ti ADONAI; va-yet e-lai’ va-yish-ma shav-ati

(I waited patiently for the Lord; and He inclined to me, and heard my cry)


וַיַּעֲלֵנִי מִבּוֹר שָׁאוֹן מִטִּיט הַיָּוֵן וַיָּקֶם עַל-סֶלַע רַגְלָי כּוֹנֵן אֲשֻׁרָי

Va-ya-a-le’-ni mi-bor sha-on, mi-tit ha-ya-ven

va-ya’-kem al—se’-la rag-lai ko-nen ashu-ra’i

(Verse 2. And He drew me up from the gruesome pit, out of the miry clay, and set my feet upon a rock, and made my footsteps secure)


He heard my cry! Yishma shavati

He heard my cry! Yishma shavati


ַוַיִּתֵּן בְּפִי שִׁיר חָדָשׁ

He’s put a new song in my mouth

Yir-oo rabim ve-yi-ra’-oo, ve-yiv-te-chu ba-ADONAI

(Verse 3b. Many shall see it, and fear, and shall trust in YHVH)


He heard my cry! Yishma shavati

He heard my cry! Yishma shavati
