Hebrew Vocabulary:
Am Yisrael chai, od avinu chai-  The Jewish people lives! Our father yet lives!

 Audio that begins recording from an address given by David Ben Gurion to the new State of Israel in 1948

Lyrics: 
On the road five thousand years
You'd think we'd seen it all by now
Wait and see, the best is on its way
Slavery to victory, we always see it through somehow
We are one, we are free
We can shape our destiny

Am Yisrael chai, am yisrael chai
Am Yisrael chai, od avinu chai

Carry on the holy book, you'd think we'd read it all by now
Can it be there's always more to learn
Older than we can imagine, yet it still makes sense somehow

We are strong, we are proud
It feels good to sing out loud

Am Yisrael chai...

Mother to daughter, father to son
A different meaning to everyone
Passing the wisdom down from hand to hand
