Thirteen Windings and a Knot
Audio recording of song:
By Dave Nachmanoff (with input from the CBH community!) – rough mix
Like the tallest of the redwood trees, in our lovely grove
You’ve guided us and helped show us the way
You make everyone feel welcome, you learn everybody’s name
We’re so glad that you’re not moving far away
CHORUS:
We’re gonna miss you, but we wish you joy
CBH will always be your home
We’re gonna miss you, but we wish you joy
Thirteen windings and a knot, and then you’re on your own
On Friday all the preschool kids would rush to gather ’round
So excited everytime the Rabbi came
To the teens you’d say on Tuesday you should go water the tree
In Israel that’s planted in your name
(CHORUS)
With your costumes and your stories, you sprinkle in the light
Teach our children to be proud and to be kind
With warmth and with compassion, and your easygoing ways
You’ve shown us it’s OK to take our time
Bridge:
Will you spend more time with Julie, or maybe write a book,
Will photography become a new career?
No matter where you travel, or what you choose to do
Your community will always be right here
FINAL CHORUS:
We’re gonna miss you, but we wish you joy
CBH will always be your home|
We’re gonna miss you, but we wish you joy
You can go forth on your own, but you will never be alone
Lechi Lach, but you will never be alone
