Everyone is busy
Almost every day.
Moms and Dads are working,
While children learn and play.
Cars get caught in traffic,
Angry horns go "honk;"
We're so tired we tumble,
Into bed, kerplonk!
We all rush and hurry
Every day but one.
On Shabbat God tells us,
"No more work, you're done!"
With Shabbat God gives us
Time to rest and more,
Time to hope and dream
and to make our spirits soar!
