Sabbath Prayer Songtext
von Jerry Bock

May the Lord protect and defend you
May He always shield you from shame
May you come to be in His royal shining flame
May you be like Ruth and like Esther
May you be deserving of praise
Strengthen them, O Lord
And keep them from the stranger′s ways


May God bless you
And grant you long life
May the Lord fulfill our Sabbath prayer for you
May God make you good mothers and wives
May He send you husbands who will care for you

May the Lord protect and defend you
May the Lord protect and defend you
May the Lord preserve you from pain
May the Lord preserve you from pain
Safeguard them, O Lord
With happiness and peace
O hear our Sabbath prayer
Amen
