    on the shloshim  for my father, Mitchell Robinson z"l


HaMakom yinachem etchem
HaMakom yinachen etchen
HaMakom yinachem etchechem, b'toch sha'ar avlei tzion v'yerushalayim.


In times when we are troubled
 By losses we must face
The soul will bleed
As we grieve
Sorrow cuts its own pace.                                  

Chorus:

We'll miss their smiles, touch, and smell
The hands we once held
Love lives on
with memories strong
Spirit dances beyond the veil.                          

Chorus:

May you be comforted on your journey
May you feel what you need to feel
Let seeds be planted of hope and consolation
may you find the time to heal.                        

Chorus:
