lyrics

Mi chamocha ba’eilim Adonai 
Mi kamocha nedar bakodesh 
Nora t’hilot oseh feleh

Mal’chut’cha ra-u vanecha
 bokeia yam lifnei Moshe 
Zeh eili anu v’amru
Adonai yimloch l’olam va’ed

V’ne’emar ki fadah Adonai et Ya’akov,
 ug’alo m’yad chazak mimenu 
Baruch Ata Adonai, go’al Yisrael

Shira chadasha shib’chu g’ulim
 L’shimcha al s’fat hayom 
Yachad kulam hodu v’himlichu v’amru
 Adonai yimloch l’olam va-ed
