Ashira Lyrics

If I never had to sleep

I'd sing a song so long and so deep

Sing until the birds began to cheep

If I never had to sleep

If I never had to sleep

I'd cleave to You and never leave

Cleave to You like Adam unto Eve

If I never had to sleep

Ashira l'Hashem b'chai'ai

Azamra l'Elokai b'odi

I'll sing to Him with my life

I'll praise Him while the soul is within me

If I never closed my eyes

I'd sing to You til the sun does rise

Sing until the birds fill up the skies

If I never closed my eyes

If I never closed my eyes

I'd sing until the oceans dry

Til the swimming fish begin to fly

If I never closed my eyes

Ashira l'Hashem b'chai'ai

Azamra l'Elokai b'odi

I'll sing to Him with my life

I'll praise Him while the soul is within me

If my strength would never die

I'd sing til all the tears would dry

Til all sadness vanished from our lives

If my strength would never die

If our strength would never die

We'd sing until the angels cry

Til the son of David will arise

If our strength would never die

Ashira l'Hashem b'chai'ai

Azamra l'Elokai b'odi

I'll sing to Him with my life

I'll praise Him while the soul is within me

If I never had to sleep

I'd lose myself in a prayer so deep

Til all separation ceased to be

If I never had to sleep

If we never had to sleep

We'd sing until the Heavens weep

Til Your Temple stands upon its feet

Til our union is complete

Ashira l'Hashem b'chai'ai

Azamra l'Elokai b'odi

I'll sing to Him my whole life

I'll praise Him while the soul is within me
