Wide as the Water (Mi Hamokha) Song

In the moment of movement
Between shore and sea
Open to the holiness inside

W i d e as the water
Before Moshe
and Miriyam
(Open to the holiness inside) 

Drum with the darkness
Dance with the light
We are free (3x)
Al s’fat ha-yam
yakhad kulam

We are free (2x)

From the narrow places
Embracing the expanse
In these waters we are renewed
We are the sea
Singing praises to the One
(In these waters we are renewed)

Drum with the darkness
Dance with the light
We are free (3x)
Al s’fat ha-yam
yakhad kulam

We are free (2x)

Mi hamokha ba-eilim YHVH
Mi kamokha neh’dar ba-kodesh
Norah tehillot oseh feleh

Dance with the darkness
Drum with the light
We are free (3x)
Al s’fat ha-yam
yakhad kulam

We are free (2x)
