Elul 2: My What if Song ~ Chava Mirel

What if the planet wasn’t round
What if the silence had a sound
What if we took our paradigms and flipped them upside down
What if we made room for us all
What if we didn’t let you fall
What if we wore our bodies like the splendor that they are
What if we synthesize? What if we integrate?
What if we energize? What if we liberate?

Oh gracious spirit of the universe
Rise up like the sun
We have these questions and we need divine direction
Help us to believe
It’s still to come
A better world is still to come

What if love could heal the violence
What if she gave voice to the silenced
What if she let her blessings flow
Across this sea of broken hearts
Illuminate the broken sparks with love
What if we could heal the violence
What if we gave voice to the silenced
What if we let our blessings flow
Across this sea of broken hearts
Illuminate the broken sparks with love

Oh gracious spirit of the universe
Rise up like the sun
We have these questions and we need divine protection
Help us to believe
It’s still to come
A better day is still to come
A better life is still to come
A better world is still to come
