Amen, amen, amen tb the awesome Name,
Amen, amen, amen!
O powcrful, awcsome magnificent Lord,
grant redemption to Your people.
He will bless you today,
and let all the people say: Amen.
Amen, amen, amen to the awesome Name,
Amen, amen, amen!
Then I will sing with a song ofpraise,
with the conductor's Psalm.
Then we shall say, "We must praise Ilhe
Lordl"
and let all the people say: Amen.
Amen, amen, amen to the awesome Name,
Amen, amen, amen!

song for Simchot Torah
Praise His name with dance,
Sing to Him with drums and with harps.
Praiso Him with the blast for the shofar,
Praisc Him with lyre and harp.
Praise Him with drums and with dance!
Praisc Him with strings and reedsl
Praise Hior with clashing cymbals!
Praise llinr with clanging cymbals!
Psalm 150
