Rosh Hashanah

Rosh Hashanah

It’s Rosh Hashanah again! And for the uninitiated or those whose faces are contorted to display a “HUH???” look, Rosh Hashanah is the Jewish New Year.

Yes, I know we are not Jewish, but the Old Testament is also part of the Bible, amen? And we know all things in the Old Testament points to the revelation of our Lord Jesus Christ.

Like what Pastor always says, “The Old Testament is Christ hidden; the New Testament is Christ revealed.”

Anyway, just happened to stumble upon this song on our church website; and it’s uncanny that it talks about Rosh Hashanah, and the images and lyrics really touch me, so I would like to share this with you.

Grace and peace be with you all,

Shalom

Rejoice O Israel (Shalom Jerusalem)

I behold a city on a hill,
A nation torn by war,
But in that place Jehovah says,
His grace has been poured forth.

I behold a people who
Are waiting for the Lord
For He will come with trumpet sounds,
As nations watch in awe.

Shalom Jerusalem,
Messiah will come.
He’ll wipe away your tears and pain,
Rejoice, daughter of Zion.

Shalom Jerusalem,
Peace be within your walls,
Yeshua will return to reign
In majesty and power.

Chorus:
When we see the Son of God,
Descending from the clouds,
He’ll be arrayed in light,
Shining glorious and bright,
On New Jerusalem

Shalom Jerusalem,
Messiah will come.
He’ll wipe away your tears and pain,
Rejoice, daughter of Zion.

Shalom Jerusalem,
Peace be within your walls,
Yeshua will return to reign
In majesty and power.

He’ll wipe away your tears and pain,
Rejoice, O Israel.
