Lyrics

One People

We are One People
We are One People
We are One People
With many gifts
To offer One Another

There are Jews who come from Paris
And some are from Madrid
Even Jews from Madagascar
Have that “pintle Yid”

Some Jews are Ashkenazi
And some are Sepharad
We all say the same prayers
And worship the same God ‘cause we’re

We are One People
We are One People
We are One People
With many gifts
To offer One Another

Some Jews live in the country
And drink water from a well
Some visit the mikvah
Some plant trees in Israel

Some Jews lay Tefilin
When they say the Shema
Some wear a baseball cap
And some wear a kipah

We are One People
We are One People
We are One People
With many gifts
To offer One Another

Some Jews give Tzedakah
Some join a Chavurah
Some Jews look for answers
And find them in the Torah

Some Jews like to tell stories
Some play on their guitars
Some find wisdom dancing
Underneath the stars
