Long Song Description:
At Rosh HaShanah, it is one of the most important time for a Jew to be reflective of choices that they have made and correct any mistakes that they know of before the most Holy Day Yom Kippur, when their fate is sealed.

Story Behind the Song:
It is a time that is very special to everyone I know and this song was written to inspire myself and others to reflect, sing the melody and remember. This song is sung by a male vocalist specially because some religious Jews do not listen to female vocalists and I wanted this to be universal

| Lyrics |
Rosh Hashanah, the time to forgive
And think about the things we have said
Words spoken before being thought through
Never thinking for a moment how they’d hurt you
Thinking of our Fathers
And how they kept their eyes on the L-rd
Pillars of kindness, service and truth
That’s Abraham, Isaac and Jacob for you
Rosh Hashanah, the time to forgive
Rosh HaShanah, Head of Years
L’Shana Tova inscribed and sealed
Round is the challah for fullness and life
Together with apples in honey we dip
Sweet is the prayer for our New Year
The Day of Judgment, we stand before Him
The Book of life on His Desk opened wide
Have I done everything I know I should do
Cleans hands and a pure heart, I stand before you
….. I stand before you
I am my beloved’s and my beloved is mine
Who may ascend the mountain of the L-rd
Who may stand in His Holy Place
One with a pure heart and clean hands
Listen to the Shofar as it sounds
The King’s Coronation and a Jewish heart cry
Waking us from spiritual sleep
Reminding us of the Mitzvahs we must keep
Who may ascend the mountain of the L_rd?
