lyrics

Verse 1
Hayita sham kshe'noladti, od miyamai harishonim
(You were there when I was born, since my first days)

Sham kedey lishmoa kshe'kol rishon yatsa mi'pi
(There to hear when the first sound came out of my mouth)

Hayita sham kshe'gadalti, b'tsadai harishonim
(You were there when I was growing up, in my first steps)

B'chol pa'am shenafalti, yadcha hayita sham le'harim
(Each time I fell, Your hand was there to pick me up)

Bridge
Kol yom bechayai hu bechayecha
(Each day in my life is in Your life)

Kol yom beyadai hu beyadecha
(Each day in my hands is in Your hands)

Bein im ani mudah o lo mudah
(Whether I’m aware or not)

Lo azavta Abba ad hayom
(You’ve never left, Father, even until today)

Chorus
Kol tfila nishme’a, ve'chol dima ne’esfa
(Every prayer has been heard, every tear has been gathered)

Hanisionot le’ehov kulam nagu lecha balev
(My attempts to love, they all touched Your heart)

Nisharta bizmanim hachi kashim
(You’ve stayed in the difficult times)

Velo fisfasta et kol hatovim
(And You haven’t missed all the good ones)

Bizchutcha ani kan Elohim
(It’s because of You God, that I’m here)

Verse 2
Lifamim shachachti lehashiv la'ahava
(Sometimes I’ve forgotten to return love)

Aval zeh lo hishpia al ahavatcha
(But it didn’t affect Your love)

Lo tamid halachti baderech ki'rtsoncha
(Not always have I walked in Your ways according to Your will)

Aval zeh lo hishpia al nochechutcha
(But it didn’t affect Your presence)
