Legacy

A fine man 
    and a fine rabbi 
he has left behind 
   a legacy 
for us to follow 
   Every Sabbath 
he would speak on the Torah 
Every time he spoke 
   we listenced 
Nearing the end 
   he took up the guitar 
and sang a song of Shabbes 
His memory enlightens us 
   The joy he brought 
will live on 
  The joy he brought 
will live on 
    Peace sisters and brothers
Shalom 
Shalom 
Shabbat Shalom
Shabbat Shalom
