mr. nicky - the israelites song by mr. nicky كلمات الأغنية

[intro]
ten commandments! hmm_mm
they’re the core laws of the torah
when i was on mount sinai, god gave me these teachings (torah)
israelites, stop praying to your idols
we’re worshipping…

[chorus]
one god, no more than that
the monotheism is what he demands
from his covenant with abraham, us descendants were promised that canaan’s our land
moved down to egypt when famine began, fleeing slavery, we came back again
built a strong kingdom that split in the end, we’ve recorded this history in…
tanakh! keeping intact our ancient faith and preserving our past
hebrew bible is what most know it as, our religion obeys all the guidance it has
judaism is that spiritual path, serving god with our ethical acts
living life righteously like he expects, as we study and pray and reflect

[verse 1]
everyone has the same obligations, to these high moral standards of his
even great kings of mesopotamia, where our ancestor abraham lived
he moved out near the mediterranean, god had let him to settle in canaan
jacob his grandson, would father our nation, call him “israel” (god had renamed him)
his sons were the leaders of tribes, family groups forming our ancestry lines
these were the earliest israelites they depended on herding and trade to survive
famine drove them from egypt for grain, they had connections and ended up staying
but in time, all the tribes were enslaved, unlike their captors they desperately prayed to…
[chorus]
one god, no more than that
the monotheism is what he demands
from his covenant with abraham, us descendants were promised that canaan’s our land
moved down to egypt when famine began, fleeing slavery, we came back again
built a strong kingdom that split in the end, we’ve recorded this history in…
tanakh! keeping intact our ancient faith and preserving our past
hebrew bible is what most know it as, our religion obeys all the guidance it has
judaism is that spiritual path, serving god with our ethical acts
he had the prophets to speak on his behalf, to behind hope or to warn of his wrath (our god said “let my people go”)

[verse 2]
the pharaoh didn’t listen, ten plagues on the egyptians, eventually convinced him, then he switched his decision (at the red sea we ditched him)
took us decades to migrate from egypt (torah), it’s the exodus, i had to lead it (torah)
when we got the laws of the covenant (torah), we entered a binding agreement (torah)
by obeying, we meet the conditions (torah), and inspire your nation’s traditions (torah), with values of fairness and justice, and roots for your major religions
one god, laid me to rest, i missed all the conquering joshua led, crushing the canaanite cities and when we were settled the judges were heads of defense
philistines moved inland to fight us
we had to find us a king to unite us, and though you did saul, you’re no david, he wrote us those hit psalms about…

[chorus]
one god, no more than that
the monotheism is what he demands
so when david established command in jerusalem, he had a temple to plan
solomon built it, but unlike his dad, he got workers and taxpayers mad
ten northern tribes would rebel in the end, we’ve recorded this history in the…
tanakh!, keeping intact our ancient faith and preserving our past
hebrew bible is what most know it as, our religion obeys all the guidance it has
judaism is our spiritual path, serving god with our ethical acts
he had the prophets speak on his behalf, to bring hope or to warn of his wrath
[bridge]
conquerors are coming! attacks from empires of the east
uh_oh!, it’s the assyrians!

(beat switch)

[bridge 2]
pay them tribute, fend them off, judah held them under siege
kept the throne of david going until their captivity when many jews were exiled to babylonia, scattering our people in a forced diaspara
finally under persian rule, cyrus said we could return, we built the temple the chaldeans trashed and burned, but those outside of judah has no place to worship god
that’s why our communities are building synagogues

[chorus]
our, our faith is endangered, by foreign invaders
our torah teachers are ensuring it survives
they educate us, about laws god gave us, and they’re our leaders
as we’re worshipping inside synagogues, synagogues, synagogues, synagogues, synagogues, synagogues, synagogues, synagogues

[verse 3]
assembling in synagogues certainly did a lot, we never saw our religion stopped
we’ve had rulers demand our priest worship like back in greece, but they faced the maccabees
that rebellion was blessed, yearly we thank god that temple was cleansed (lights!)
so don’t try to suppress, our kosher eating or sabbath day rest (ham!)
or control the rome, zealot revolts never could overthrow them
the wrecked the temple and left us a wall
still judaism would grow and evolve
facing defeat, the rabbis came through, writing oral teachings down for review, as they complete the talmud they knew, they should thank me that they’re still in school (nah)
[chorus]
our, our faith is endangered, by foreign invaders
our torah teachers are ensuring it survives
they educate us, about laws god gave us, and they’re our leaders
as we’re worshipping inside synagogues, synagogues, synagogues, synagogues, synagogues, synagogues, synagogues, synagogues
