Ruvi New - V’atoh Tetzaveh - The Faithful Shepherd

Description

Bentzi Marcus and Rabbi Ruvi New present: V’atoh Tetzaveh - The Faithful Shepherd After their highly successful collaborative Album - Storm the World (2017) which rose to #7 in the world on the iTunes World Music Charts, Bentzi Marcus and Rabbi Ruvi New have joined forces again to release “V’ato Tetzaveh”- “The Faithful Shepherd”, based on the title of Maamer- Chassidic discourse. The song is being released to coincide with the 30th Anniversary of Gimmel Tammuz -the Rebbe’s Yartzeit. “ Considering the content and messaging of the Maamer and the timeliness of the Rebbe’s personal distribution of it on Purim Koton 5752, (just days before he suffered a stroke on 27 Adar 1), many Chassidim consider the Ma’amer V’ato Tetzaveh, to be the Rebbe’s spiritual will.” explains Rabbi New. “There are a lot of profound, powerful and prescient ideas in the Maamer, that are impossible to capture in a single song, so I chose to focus on two: 1. How our connection to the Rebbe empowers us to find our pure inner faith when we’re feeling crushed. 2. Our connection to the Rebbe reveals the essentiality of each individual as expressed through our individuality.” “Many Chassidim, learn the Ma’amer each year on Gimmel Tammuz and I hope that in some way, this song will encourage people to learn it, be inspired by it, and feel the essential connection we all share with the Rebbe - the faithful shepherd of Klal Yisroel.” The song is available on: YouTube, iTunes, Apple Music, Spotify, Google Play Lyrics and vocals: Ruvi New Composed and produced by: Bentzi Marcus Recorded at Asher Essebag Studios Video Production: Neucratives Graphic Design and Marketing: Sruly Meyer My dearest child, I am Your G-D And I’ve something to share About those times, when you may think That I’m not really there There’s a little spark planted deep in the soul of every Jew the purest oil of hope and faith That will always see you through If the world is dark, your feeling crushed Your leader is your guide to light that fire of sacred oil above the darkness, you will rise Chorus V’atah Tetzaveh And you are always there When we cried and we were crushed You showed us how to trust How to find the faith inside of me Allowing me to see That even when He’s hiding Hashem cares and He is guiding all along Oh Hashem, I am Your child And I’ve something to share We've come this far, yet still we are in an exile, we can’t bear We've never felt so alone as we defend our home We look to you, ignite the spark we cry from the depths of our soul the world is dark, we’re feeling crushed We’re turning to your guide to light that fire of sacred oil above the darkness, we will rise CHORUS V’atah Tetzaveh And you are always there When we cried and we were crushed You taught us how to trust How to find the faith inside of me Allowing me to see That even when He’s hiding Hashem cares and He is guiding all along He’s guiding me all along Bridge Your the shepherd of our faith you guide us night and day Through you, we connect it’s you who protects no, we’ll never go astray ‘cause I know that every part of me matters so essentially you show me my core, how I can do more to make Moshiach a reality V’atah Tetzaveh And you are always there When we cried and we were crushed You showed us how to trust How to find the faith inside of me Allowing me to see That even when He’s hiding Hashem cares and He is guiding all along With profound appreciation to the sponsors by: Healing Hearts, Pinni Althaus, Menashe Kagan
