Baruch Hashem It’s Shabbos – A new song in honor of Shabbos, with a special video that brings the moment when the madness of the whole week turns into the peace of Shabbos. The lyrics were written by the talented Miriam Israeli, musical composition by Hershey Weinberger and Yitzy Waldner, musical arrangement and production by Naftali Schnitzler, accompanied by the “Shira” choir and the “Yiddish Nachas” children. The excellent music video produced by “Baron Herzog“, OlamMedia & Heart.Works, illustrates the essence of “ששת ימים תעבוד… וביום השביעי שבת להשם”.
Yaakov Shwekey says: “Hashem told Moshe our Rebbi that Shabbos is the greatest gift in the world. Today we rely so much on technology and gadgets that if it weren’t for Shabbos, we would never be able to have true peace and connection to who we really are. About 15 years ago I went to a very great man in the Land of Israel and asked him for a blessing. He told me that the greatest blessing you can receive is if you start Shabbos early even by a few minutes.”

Lyrics:
From nine to five
That wheel just keeps on turning
The rush the drive
A week of working
Never evading our goal
Till a moment creates a transformation
Within our soul
Time to unwind
The daily grind is over
And we can find
The peace of mind
The light inside that makes us whole
In a moment that dates back to creation
Hashem’s in control
We let out a sigh
And look up to the sky
As the sun sets on all our cares
So happy it’s finally here
Baruch Hashem it’s Shabbos
גוט שאבעס
We’re signing out
Of all the wheeling-dealing
We’re zooming in
And getting close to the Creator of it all
Till the moment that brings a separation
בין קודש לחול
Let’s turn around
And seek the inner meaning
That can be found
When we step out of our day to day routine
It’s a moment our souls find elevation
While greeting a queen
We let out a sigh
As we tell her goodbye
And escort her upon her way
It’s just six more days till we say
Baruch Hashem it’s Shabbos
גוט שאבעס
יום השישי
ויכלו השמים והארץ וכל צבאם
ויכל אלוקים ביום השביעי
מלאכתו אשר עשה
וישבת ביום השביעי
