Tikkun Olam

Tikkun olam, tikkun olam (4x)
 
We were slaves back in Pharoah’s day,
We value freedom in every way,
We marched with Martin for civil rights,
We champion freedom’s light!
Tikkun olam... tikkun olam…
 
Reach out your hand, do what you can do
To try to try to help someone, it’s called tikkun olam.
Fight injustice wherever you can,
And always lend a helping hand.

Tikkun olam, tikkun olam (4x)
 
It’s our duty to do Mitzvot,
To repair the world, it’s called tikkun olam…
Clean up a stream, plant a garden or tree,
Cook a meal, teach a child to read.
Tikkun olam... tikkun olam…
 
What you do can be big or small,
What matters is… that you cared at all!
 
Tikkun olam, tikkun olam (4x)
 
Take some time and think of all the ways
You could spread some sunshine in somebody’s day.
If we reach out and do what we can
We are truly children of the Promised Land!
 
Tikkun olam, tikkun olam (4x)
