NISHMAT KOL CHAI
Music by Peri Smilow
Lyrics by Anita Diamant & Peri Smilow

If my mouth was filled with song
Like the ocean tide is strong
If my tongue could but give praise
Like the roaring of the waves

It would never ever be enough
To thank you, amen

If my ears were tuned to hear
The heavenly music of the spheres
If my heart could rise and reach
Like the crashing on the beach

It would never ever be enough
There could never ever be enough
To thank you, amen

So, let us praise and let us shout
Breathing in and singing out
Hear the joyful noise of voices joined in song
For the gifts that came before us
And for all those yet to come
We thank you, amen

If my mouth was filled with song
Like the ocean tide is strong
If my tongue could but give praise
Like the roaring of the waves

It would never ever be enough
There could never ever be enough
We will never, ever, ever say enough
To thank you, to thank you
We thank you, amen
