The song "And may your holy spirit rest upon us" from the prayer of Rabbi Elimelech of Lizansk, may God bless him, was composed by a scholar, fearing God and adhering to Hasidism, on the occasion of the Bar Mitzvah of his grandson, named after the tzaddik, may God bless him.
The song, which touched the hearts of those invited to the bar mitzvah, was later performed by top-notch musicians, who gathered in the studio of musician and arranger, Zvi Blumenfeld, in preparation for the 21st of Adar - the Day of Rejoicing.
The singer Israel Werdiger and the child prodigy Ari Reich were entrusted with the vocals, who is currently working on another single, which will be released in the coming weeks.
Reich's recordings were handled by his producer and personal trainer, Moshe Cohen, who was able to extract from him the full emotion and depth required to perform the moving prayer.
Words: From the prayer before the prayer edited by the Rebbe Elimelech of Lizansk, Zia
And pour out your Holy Spirit upon us, that we may be steadfast in you. And that we may continually yearn for you, and may you increase us more and more, and from step to step you will ascend us, that we may be worthy to enter into the glory of our holy fathers, Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.
