Rise and Come — רֹאשׁ חֹדֶשׁ נִיסָן

Intro — Acoustic Guitar / Soft Harmony Winter packed its bags last night, Frost gave way to softer light, We heard it whispered after prayer — A turning in the air. They said it clear on Shabbat morn, “רֹאשׁ חֹדֶשׁ נִיסָן is reborn.” And something in the heart replied — “Step outside.” Verse 1 — The Ascent אֱלֹהֵינוּ וֵאלֹהֵי אֲבוֹתֵינוּ, Let it rise, let it come through, יַעֲלֶה וְיָבֹא — like breath in spring, Like wings that lift when robins sing. יַגִּיעַ — let it reach the sky, יֵרָאֶה — let it be seen on high, יִשָּׁמַע — let it be heard today, יִפָּקֵד וְיִזָּכֵר — don’t let it fade away. Pre-Chorus Remember us for good this time, Lift us past the winter line, Not just in word — but in our days — In how we walk Your ways. Chorus — Wide Open Rise and come, let mercy flow, Through every room we’ve cleaned below, From dusty shelf to open door — We’re ready for more. רֹאשׁ הַחֹדֶשׁ — brand new start, Sweep the corners of the heart, חַג הַמַּצּוֹת is drawing near — And freedom’s here. Verse 2 — Cleaning & Memory We shake the crumbs from hidden seams, From countertops and old routines, But deeper still we clear the space For hope to take its place. וְזִכְרוֹן יְרוּשָׁלַיִם — in our song, וְזִכְרוֹן כָּל עַמְּךָ — all belong, לְפָנֶיךָ לִפְלֵטָה — let us stand, Held in a steady Hand. Pre-Chorus 2 לְטוֹבָה, לְחֵן, לְחֶסֶד too, לְרַחֲמִים that carry through, לְחַיִּים וּלְשָׁלוֹם we pray — For this new day. Chorus — Bigger Rise and come, let blessing fall, On this house and on us all, Remember us and make us strong — Where we belong. וּפָּקְדֵנוּ לִבְרָכָה, וְהוֹשִׁיעֵנוּ לְחַיִּים — We lift our eyes because we know You’re King of kings. Bridge — Freedom Echo נִיסָן carries ancient flame, First of months, first by name, The month that broke a tyrant’s hold, Turned slaves into bold. From Egypt’s dust to modern street, From hidden pain to dancing feet, We don’t just read what once was done — We rise with the sun. Final Chorus — Full Harmony Lift Rise and come — יַעֲלֶה וְיָבֹא! Let it bloom and let it grow! From whispered prayer to open sky — Lift us high. רֹאשׁ חֹדֶשׁ נִיסָן, hear our call, Renew the courage in us all, חַנּוּן וְרַחוּם — we know You are — Near and far. Rise and come — let freedom start, Clean this house and clean the heart, As Pesach waits beyond the door — We’re ready for more. Outro — Gentle Resolve כי אליך עינינו, We’re looking up to You, King חַנּוּן וְרַחוּם, Faithful and true. Rise and come, And stay.
