אדון עולם – Master of the Universe

God once ruled

The Truth was King

Everything He told me 

My life would sing

Then I met the lies

With their subtle spin

And in my frightened state 

I let them in

The lies evolved

Till the sin was rife  

Choked out my voice

And controlled my life

They held me captive

With a pointed knife

In a world of corruption

A world of strife

I lost my God

He lost His reign

My Temple fell 

Breached by all the pain

I was cast into

A new domain

That which I once loved

Now all seemed vain

In the flames of all

That I once had

I asked how good

Had turned to bad

How had the happy

Turned into sad

I needed to know

So I asked my Dad

(I asked) Who am I 

Can you tell me why 

Why I’m here 

What I’m here to do

He Said

‘What you’re to do

Depends on you

The you inside that’s asking who’

So I asked myself I questioned מי

Questioned all the years שאפקיד רוחי

Till I realized אין spells אני

Then I looked in and found You מנת כוסי

And You heard my prayers You let me see

That the top of my ladder הוא אלי

Through You I was reborn חי גואלי

Woke up from my slumber ויהוה לי

יהוה לי ולא אירא

בטרם כל יציר נברא

לבדו ימלך נורא

אזי מלך, אזי מלך, שמו נקרא
