"Freedom and Homecoming: A Chant for Rosh Hashana"


T’ka b’shofar gadol l’chayrutaynu
V’sa nes l'kabaytz g'luyotaynu



  Sound the Great Shofar for our Freedom 

And raise the banner as we all come home.

    (Amida)





These  words are part of the daily Amida, but they can be chanted especially for Rosh Hashana as we gather the tribe in celebration of the New Year and all its possibilities. For me this prayer is an affirmation that while we each are sent far and wide to our freedom – to fulfill the destiny we are given – we can also return in celebration and be welcomed home.
