The singer and songwriter When is Shriki? Releasing his new single ""A Hymn of Thanksgiving"" – A work born from the war period, from a personal and genuine place. The song is based on Psalm 10 in Psalms, and presents it as Shiriki experienced the war days up close: with the pain, with the loss - and with the miracles.
""I was also drafted into the reserves at the Home Front Command, I served almost 200 days and was exposed up close to the magnitude of the miracles that surrounded us. Despite all the losses and pain, it is impossible to ignore the miracles and success. I felt that this is the thing that most connects to the psalm of thanksgiving – it is true thanksgiving that is based on the reality that is happening before our eyes,"" Shriki's number.
Alongside the song, a unique music video was released that Shreki himself created, combining real photography with AI technology - which converted all the war images into Lego figures. The choice is not accidental.

""I created the clip out of a desire to make the message accessible to all ages, even to children who may be less exposed to war. Everyone needs to know that our soldiers are heroes and loved, and I chose a sweet and kind way to express that, using Lego figures.".
"To me, Lego is like our reality – the understanding that God is the one who guides everything permeates more than ever. He builds reality, sometimes putting it together and sometimes taking it apart. We don't always know why, but we trust Him and are confident that all His actions are for the best. All that remains for us is to try.""
