Lyrics

[Verse 1]
May the Lord protect and defend you
May He always shield you from shame
May you come to be
In Yisroel a shining name
[Verse 2]
May you be like Ruth and like Esther
May you be deserving of praise
Strengthen them, oh Lord
And keep them from the strangers' ways
[Bridge]
May God bless you and grant you long lives
May the Lord fulfill our Sabbath prayer for you
May God make you good mothers and wives
May He send you husbands who will care for you
[Verse 3]
May the Lord protect and defend you (May the Lord protect and defend you)
May the Lord preserve you from pain (May the Lord preserve you from pain)
Favor them, oh Lord, with happiness and peace (Favor them, oh Lord, with happiness)
Oh, hear our Sabbath prayer
[Outro]
Amen
