Do you remember the song "Peace of Mind" from way back when, by a group named "Boston"? Well, Menachem Herman and I got a hold of it. I changed the lyrics and called it "One Hour a Day," turning it into a song about hitbodedut, talking to Hashem for an hour a day in personal prayer. Menachem of course plays the music better than the original, just like he did in Sweet Home, Jerusalem. Here's something to really brighten your day:
ONE HOUR A DAY
Music by "Boston", performed by Menachem Herman and Emuna - Lyrics by Rabbi Lazer Brody
Now if you're feelin' kinda low 'cause your soul is cryin'
The Geula's coming much too slow
And you shout in the darkness 'cause you feel like dyin'
There doesn't seem to be any place to go
Yeah, yeah, yeah
I understand about deep depression
But I don't care what people say
My heart and my soul need their daily expression
I'll talk to Hashem for one hour a day. (yea...)
Now you're lookin' around for some real action
Something that's good for your head
But wherever you search you get a bad reaction
So why not try Hashem instead?
I understand about deep depression
But I don't care what people say
My heart and my soul need their daily expression
I'll talk to Hashem for an hour a day..
One hour a day, an hour a day, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah...woa!
Now everybody's got advice they just keep on givin'
Doesn't mean too much to me
Lot's of people out to make-believe they're livin'
'Cause emuna they don't yet see.
I understand about deep depression
But I don't care what people say
My heart and my soul need their daily expression
I'll talk to Hashem for an hour a day..
One hour a day, an hour a day, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah...woa!
