My very dear friend, singer and composer David Dome, in the middle of hitbodedut, received a sudden inspiration that resulted in this song:
Hashem's Commando
He left his old life behind
Now he tidies the mess in our minds,
To bring us from the dark into the light.
Confronting the things that are wrong,
In the places where lies don't belong,
And changing our grey into black and white.
Hashem's Commando faces the fight,
Changing the darkness to the brightest light.
Hashem's Commando shows us what to do
To help us become Commandos too.
The things that are not in his control ,
He hands over to the Master of his soul,
And whatever he gets is for the very best.
His yetzer wants to give him a hit,
Well , he ain't having none of it,
Keeps his composure and says thanks for the test.
Hashem's Commando takes on the fight,
Changing the darkness to the brightest light.
Hashem's Commando sees only the good,
In the people who feel that they never could.
We must try with the best of our ability,
To find our way to The Trail of Tranquility
Emuna's Garden is such a beautiful sight .
When we get there we're gonna see,
Thousands of Commandos living joyfully,
In Love and Peace having won the fight.
Hashem's Commando he gets the last punch,
Hits the yetzer so hard, sends him right out to lunch.
Hashem's Commando will help us pass the test,
And see that it's all for the very best.
Thank you so very much, David; this lovely melody put more than one tear in my eye.
