about

This poem of God’s greatness contains 22 lines each starting with a letter of the Hebrew alphabet and testifies to His distinction. Since the finale of creation was Shabbat - the seventh day, this poem encompasses all of creation, from the heavens and all that is contained in them, to the celestial beings. This work is placed just before the pre-Shema Kedusha of the morning service, which culminates with the angels singing Holy, Holy, Holy is the Master of the hosts. In this tribute to the Master of the universe, we too prepare ourselves in joyful song for the acknowledgment of His greatness.


I composed this song in my first years in Israel. Living in the mystical city of Sefat and finally finding a Rebbe who spoke directly to my heart, this tune literally popped out during the Shabbat Shacharit service.

lyrics

אֵל אָדוֹן עַל כָּל הַמַּעֲשִׂים,

בָּרוּךְ וּמְבֹרָךְ בְּפִי כָּל נְשָׁמָה,

גָּדְלוֹ וְטוּבוֹ מָלֵא עוֹלָם,

דַּֽעַת וּתְבוּנָה סֹבְבִים אוֹתוֹ.


הַמִּתְגָּאֶה עַל חַיּוֹת הַקֹּֽדֶשׁ,

וְנֶהְדָּר בְּכָבוֹד עַל הַמֶּרְכָּבָה,

זְכוּת וּמִישׁוֹר לִפְנֵי כִסְאוֹ,

חֶֽסֶד וְרַחֲמִים לִפְנֵי כְבוֹדוֹ.


טוֹבִים מְאוֹרוֹת שֶׁבָּרָא אֱלֹהֵֽינוּ,

יְצָרָם בְּדַֽעַת בְּבִינָה וּבְהַשְׂכֵּל,

כֹּֽחַ וּגְבוּרָה נָתַן בָּהֶם,

לִהְיוֹת מוֹשְׁלִים בְּקֶֽרֶב תֵּבֵל.


מְלֵאִים זִיו וּמְפִיקִים נֹֽגַהּ,

נָאֶה זִיוָם בְּכָל הָעוֹלָם,

שְׂמֵחִים בְּצֵאתָם וְשָׂשִׂים בְּבוֹאָם,

עֹשִׂים בְּאֵימָה רְצוֹן קוֹנָם.


פְּאֵר וְכָבוֹד נוֹתְנִים לִשְׁמוֹ,

צָהֳלָה וְרִנָּה לְזֵֽכֶר מַלְכוּתוֹ,

קָרָא לַשֶּֽׁמֶשׁ וַיִּזְרַח אוֹר,

רָאָה וְהִתְקִין צוּרַת הַלְּבָנָה.


שֶֽׁבַח נוֹתְנִים לוֹ כָּל צְבָא מָרוֹם,

תִּפְאֶֽרֶת וּגְדֻלָּה, שְׂרָפִים וְאוֹפַנִּים וְחַיּוֹת הַקֹּֽדֶשׁ.

Kayl adon al kol hama’asim, baruch umivorach b’fi kol nishama

Gadlo v’tuvo malei olam, da’at u’tivuna sovivim otoh.


Hamisga’eh al chayot hakodesh, v’nehedar b’chavod al hamerkava

Zechut u’mishor lifnei chiso, chesed v’rachamim lifnei chivodo.


Tovim m’orot shebara Elokeinu, yitzaram b’da’at b’vina u’vihaskel,

Ko’ach u’gevurah natan bahem, lihiyot moshlim b’kerev teivel.


M’lei’im ziv u’mefikim noga, na’eh zivam b’chol haolam,

Simeichim b’tzeitam v’sasim b’vo’am, osim b’eima ritzon konam.


P’eir v’;chavod notnim l’shmo, tzahala v’rina l’zecher Malchuto,

Kara lashemesh vayizrak ohr, ra’ah v’hitkin tzurat halevana.


Shevach notnim lo kol tzivah marom, tiferet u’gedulah,

Serafim, v’ofanim, v’chayot hakodesh.

*********************************
God, Master over all works,

Blessed is He, and ever to be blessed by the mouth of everything that has breath.

His greatness and goodness fill the universe;

Knowledge and understanding surround him:



He is exalted above the holy creatures

And is adorned in glory above the celestial chariot:

Purity and uprightness are before His throne,

Loving-kindness and mercy before his glory.



The luminaries are good which our God has created:

He formed them with knowledge, understanding and intelligence;

He gave them might and power

To rule in the midst of the world.



They are full of luster, and they radiate brightness:

Beautiful is their luster throughout the entire world.

They are joyful in their goings and are jubilant in their coming;

They perform with awe the will of their Master.



Glory and splendor they render unto His Name,

Jubilation and song at the fame of His majesty.

He called unto the sun, and it shined with light:

He looked, and ordained the figure of the moon.



All the heavenly hosts render praise unto Him,

The Seraphim, the Ofanim and the holy Chayot ascribe glory and greatness to Him.
