Ahavas Yisroel

Abie Rotenberg/A Kumsitz in the Rain

  Am    Dm       G        Am
I am an ancient wall of stone 
F       G       Am
atop a hill so high
    Am      Dm     G          Am
And if you listen with your heart 
     F         G      Am
You just may hear my cry
       C             Am
Where has the Bais Hamikdash gone 
    F         G    C
I stand here all alone
     C            Am
How long am I to wait for all 
     F       G       C
My children to come home

   Am       Dm     G      Am
A house of marble and of gold 
       F        G      Am
Once stood here by my side
      Am      Dm       G       Am
From far and wide all came to see 
      F    G        Am
Its beauty and its pride
     C              Am
But Sin’as Chinam brought it down 
     F      G        C
And with it so much pain
    C            Am
Now only Ahavas Yisrael 
     F        G     C
Can build it once again


Chorus 1
G          Am
Together together 
G                Em
We stood by Har Sinai 
    Dm           Am
My daughters and sons
G           Am
Forever forever 
    G            Em
We must stand together 
   Dm       Am
Forever as one

     Am        Dm     G        Am
You come and stand beside my stones 
     F          G       Am
To raise your voice in prayer
     Am        Dm      G    Am
You ask “When will the Galus end 
     F         G      Am
How much more can we bear?”
     C            Am
But Sinas Chinam still lives on 
    F      G         C
It lingers in your heart
     C                 Am
How can you come back home to me 
       F     G     C
While you remain apart


Chorus 2
   G        Am
Together together 
     G            Em
We stood by Har Sinai 
     Dm           Am
My daughters and sons
   G        Am
Forever forever 
     G            Em
We must stand together 
   Dm      Am
Forever as one
   G        Am
Together together 
     G            Em
We stood by Har Sinai 
   Dm      Am
B’nai Avraham.
   G         Am
Forever, forever, 
     G            Em    
We must stand together 
   Dm      Am
Forever as one
