Impermanence and Gratitude

Rock from whose we’ve eaten,

Bless my faith!

We’ve eaten our fill

We’ve given from what we have

As our Rock instructed.

Feeding her world, our shepherd

Our mother

We ate your bread

We drank your wine

Now we thank You

Our mouths sing praise

We answer your kindness:

There’s no holiness like Yours.

With voices filled with gratitude we sing blessings to our source

For the sweetness and the goodness

For the land our ancestors sat on

And the one we sit on today

For the nourishment you fill our souls with:

Your love has overcome us,

Your never-ending truth.

Happy Sukkot!
