Hallel

Singing songs that praise God | hallel | הַלֵּל

This is the time set aside for singing and praising God for His blessings.   Some of us might sing traditional prayers from the Book of Psalms. Others take this moment for favorites like Chad Gadya & Who Knows One, which you can find in the appendix. To celebrate the theme of freedom, we might sing songs from the civil rights movement. Or perhaps your crazy Uncle Frank has some parody lyrics about Passover to the tunes from a musical.

We now pour the Fourth Glass of Wine and call upon th name of the Lord.

Group:  We will praise the Lord forever.

Leader: God is my strength and my song, and he has become my triumph.

Group:  And we will praise the Lord forever.

Leader:  We will not die but live, 

                 Live to declare the works of the Lord, 

                 And we will praise the Lord forever.
