AL TIFROSH
Cantor Wally
Ruach 5761

[Cantor Wally writes:] Al Tifrosh is a wish that wherever we are, we are able to be part of a family or a community, a song of thanks for friendship, and a song that works well in a closing circle, gathering time, or Havdallah.

VERSE 1
When I came into this life,
I thought the world was made for me.
Then I came to realize I'm part of a family.
And whenever I need some love to share,
My family will always be there.

CHORUS
Al tifrosh min hatzibur.
With community you can be secure
We can grow to be a family.
You don't need to feel alone.
Al tifrosh min hatzibur.
We'll be there for you, and you can be sure
If you open your eyes you'll see the ones who are wise
Know they're never on their own.

VERSE 2
As I go along my way,
I meet and make new friends.
As I grow to know each one,
I pray this friendship never ends.
And now when I have some love to share,
This new family will always be there.

CHORUS

VERSE 3
As I prepare to leave this place,
There's sadness in the air.
Your friendship is a gift to me,
A treasure beyond compare.
And whenever you need some love to share,
Just think of me and I'll be there!
(I'll be there for you!)

FINAL CHORUS
Al tifrosh min hatzibur.
With community you can be secure.
We can grow to be a family,
You don't need to feel alone.
Al tifrosh min hatzibur.
We'll be there for you, and you can be sure
If you open your eyes you'll see the ones who are wise,
Know they're never on their own.
