The hardest thing to see is what’s in front of your nose – George Orwell – but let’s see

Before you know it , in six blinding days, waters receded, dry land seeded

Foliage, beast and man, were born

Before you know it

God spoke, woman caved, and man fell flat

Before you know it

Desiring instincts created mayhem

God regretted, the water drowned

Before you know it

One man seeks, hence finds the truth

All is one, he declares

Challenged and tested

Light enters darkness

Before you know it

To Egypt as slaves

Then Mosses with God redeems

Egyptians drowned, God is found

A monotheistic ethical system is revealed

Before you know it

In its embryonic womb in Israel

Flirting with foreign idols

The first Temple is destroyed

Before you know it

In Persia under foreign rule

Hearts reclaim the Sinai revelations

Before you know it

A second Temple is born

And true to God, Jews have learned

Before you know it

My children, it’s time to bring the Messiah

Rome is sent

And Jerusalem is ransacked

Before you know it

Two thousand years later

The world learns to love

War is the devil

Jews are back home

Before you know it

The Rebbe returned

The third Temple descends

Cloud’s gather, in a hug, all the Jews God loves

Forevermore war is gone

To seek God’s wisdom, to Israel all stream
