A'Donai Ro'i Lo Echsar
Composed From Psalm 23
This is a song that is written in hebrew. The gist of it is praising God Almighty. It was written into four parts. I have the original single-part below, and will add the four-part version as I can get it.
A-do-nai ro-i lo ech-sar

Ado'nai roi lo lo (hold out) ech (long) sar
This song is often sung at weddings, Barmitzvah's, Batmitzvah's, and at Christmas times. The song is one long prayer, though the way that it is supposed to be performed would not suggest it as such. It is sung in a minor key and is not very happy or joyous in tune. The Psalm itself is from The Bible, though the arrangement of the music was wre-written by a man by the name of Gerald Cohen
