People everywhere long for peace: this new setting of our ancient prayer invites us to be peace-makers.

lyrics

Oseh Shalom – words and music by Joanie Calem ©2017

Oseh Shalom b’mromav
Osim anu shalom kahn achshav
Hu ya’aseh shalom aleinu
U’ma’aseinu yashlimu et ma’asav

Peace comes down from the heavens above
Rises back up on the wings of the dove.
Swirls around, through us and beyond,
Peace comes with the sunrise at dawn.

Oseh Shalom b’mromav
Osim anu shalom kahn achshav
Hu ya’aseh shalom aleinu
U’ma’aseinu yashlimu et ma’asav

Course there are wars and there is pain
Seems we fall again and again.
But quiet peace, passed hand to hand
Will heal the wounds that crack the land.

Oseh Shalom b’mromav
Osim anu shalom kahn achshav
Hu ya’aseh shalom aleinu
U’ma’aseinu yashlimu et ma’asav

Peace comes down on silent wings
We spread it round as we pray and sing.
It’s now us that must let peace grow,
As we walk through our lives we know,

Oseh Shalom b’mromav
Osim anu shalom kahn achshav
Hu ya’aseh shalom aleinu
U’ma’aseinu yashlimu et ma’asav
