Atah Kadosh (You are Holy)
On many paths, I have walked.
To search for truth.
I did not hesitate to feast on the delicacy of sin.
We did not find ourselves, the lies have no more taste.
This culture is not for us, for there is fire in our hearts.
For I am the smallest and lowest of all, standing here trembling and amazed.
And I am small, the last of the people, standing here excited, very excited…
For You are holy,
And Your name is holy,
Holy ones praise You all day, amen.
