If the Book of Life was today unfurled
It would show a broken world
A world of sadness and despair
With people who no longer care
Is this the world we want to see,
Where a person cannot live free?
Is this the choice that we have made?
Our freedom now has been delayed
Signs with hatred on every street
We try to fight, but face defeat
So, to G-d, please hear our voice
Do not say we have no choice
Please, dear G-d, we cannot cope
We need Your words to give us hope
Tikkun Olam, that is our role
To repair the world and make it whole
