English lyrics and music by Leah Shoshanah
Shalom rav, aleinu
(for) Abundant peace, it is up to us
A reconstructed version of Shalom Rav in which the responsibility for peace falls upon us. We know some of the steps it will take to build peace in this world.
This song is a mantra about those steps:
1) recognizing that we are all connected as humans beyond nations, socio-economic status, religion, color or gender expression
2) opening our eyes to the corruption and injustices happening to our human family
3) turn prayer to action, take it to the streets, serve those in need, do the holy work until we all are free
