Today, on Yom Hazikaron, we honor and remember Israel’s fallen soldiers and victims of terror. Israel is a small nation with a huge impact on the world and on our lives. Before we celebrate its independence, we pause for a moment to reflect on those whom we’ve lost.

“Mi Sheberach” is a prayer for the soldiers of Israel’s Defense Forces that is sung to the tune of “El Eretz Tzvi” by Yehoram Gaon.

We at Six13 had the honor and privilege of singing this song with 2 great cantors, Chaim Dovid Berson of the Jewish Center and Dan Singer of Stephen Wise Free Synagogue. We hope it helps bring some extra meaning to an emotionally charged day.

May we realize the prophetic promise and see the day when nation will no longer fight against nation and will prepare for war no more.
