about

The Jew has a biblical obligation to recite the “Shema” (Hear O’ Israel, God is our Lord, God is One) - a declaration of faith to God’s “Oneness,” twice a day, evening and morning. Before the great dispersion of Jews by Rome, the Men of the Great Assembly formulated our prayers as a replacement to the now defunct daily Temple service. These services contain the “Shema” and are the apex of these prayers.
These great men focused the prayer immediately prior to this declaration on the love relationship between God and His people Israel. In our song, we proclaim that we require God’s Merciful qualities to help us understand and apply the words of His Torah with thge highest form of devotion - love.

Reb Yosil wrote this song on the night his oldest son was born. As a praise to G-d in thanks to him.

lyrics

אָבִֽינוּ, הָאָב הָרַחֲמָן, הַמְרַחֵם, רַחֵם עָלֵֽינוּ
וְתֵן בְּלִבֵּֽנוּ לְהָבִין וּלְהַשְׂכִּיל, לִשְׁמֹֽעַ,
לִלְמֹד וּלְלַמֵּד, לִשְׁמֹר וְלַעֲשׂוֹת
וּלְקַיֵּם אֶת כָּל דִּבְרֵי תַלְמוּד תּוֹרָתֶֽךָ בְּאַהֲבָה
..........................................................
Avinu Ha'Av Ha'rachaman, Hamiracheim, racheim, aleinu'u,

Visein B'libainu lihavin ul'haskil, lihavin ul'haskil
Li'shmo'ah Li'lmod u'lilamiad, Li'shmor Vi'lasos, Li'shmor Vi'lasos

UleKayem es kol divrei, Talmud torasecha,
UleKayem es kol divrei, salmud torasecha, B'Ahavoh'oh, Oy B'Ahavoh
.........................................................

Our father, father of mercy, Who acts upon us with mercy.
Place in our hearts understanding and intelligence, to comprehend, to learn and to teach, to protect and to accomplish and to fulfill every word of Your Torah with love.
