Baruch Hashem – It’s Shabbos! Songtext
von Abie Rotenberg

B′zeas Apecha is the fate of all mankind
No one can avoid - the bustle and the grind
Rushing to meetings - closing the deal
On the phone on the road - buying, selling, spinning wheels

It's easy to lose balance - chasing money and success
But there is a special treasure - with which we have been blessed
And as each day passes - joy fills the air
Waiting for the moment - to stand up and declare

Baruch Hashem It′s Shabbos - heiliger, tayerer Shabbos
In the candle's glow - Our Neshomas grow - Baruch Hashem It's Shabbos
Baruch Hashem It′s Shabbos - heiliger, tayerer Shabbos
Once the wine is poured - we become restored - Baruch Hashem It′s Shabbos

Sheishes Yomim Ta'avoid - For six days every week
We work hard and struggle - just to make ends meet
But once out of seven - we all become kings
Who greet Shabbos HaMalka - by rising up to sing


Baruch Hashem It′s Shabbos - heiliger, tayerer Shabbos
As we learn and pray - tension melts away - Baruch Hashem It's Shabbos
Baruch Hashem It′s Shabbos - heiliger, tayerer Shabbos
Home from shul we stride - with Malachim at our side - Baruch Hashem It's Shabbos

I′m so stressed out at work - when I hear the boss I jump
To shop or go to shul - I'm always parking by a pump
But all of the worry - goes down the drain
When my wife and children join me - in singing the refrain

Boruch Hashem Zis Shabbos - heiliger, tayerer Shabbos
Mir shteigen hecher - nenter tzum BaShefer - Baruch Hashem It's Shabbos
Baruch Hashem Shabbat Higiyah - Yom M′Ranein U′Margia
Matanah Tovah - Mayain Olam HaBah - Baruch Hashem Shabbat Higiyah

Shabbos is the day - we get to catch our breath
Making sure our lives have purpose - with meaning and with depth
Hashem loves us - knows just what we need
So let these words be on the lips - of every single Yid

Baruch Hashem It's Shabbos - heiliger, tayerer Shabbos
We were placed on earth - for eternal worth - Baruch Hashem It′s Shabbos
Baruch Hashem It's Shabbos - heiliger, tayerer Shabbos
As much as all of the above - we get to bond with those we love

And there′s one more plus - Our parents spend more time with us!


Baruch Hashem It's Shabbos!
Baruch Hashem It′s Shabbos!
Baruch Hashem It's Shabbos!
Shabbat Shalom!
Gut Shabbos!
