We come to these High Holidays, each of us in our own spot on the continuum between extreme unease and openness to the unknown.

Closing our eyes, we can almost feel the rush of sensation that comes with walking into the open tent: the greetings, the taking of seats, the voices joining with one another in song.

Opening our eyes to the screens in front of us, we are woven together through technology, and through the shared experience of having journeyed through these months together.

Rosh HaShanah celebrates the creation and re-creation of the world. May these services help us commit more deeply to the necessary re-creations we are in the midst of - personally, nationally, globally. Yom Kippur invites us to practice teshuvah, returning to what is most precious, meaningful, and true in our lives.

As in past services, there will be lots of singing. We’ll hear the Torah speak to themes of struggle and transformation. We’ll evoke our breaking hearts with the cry of the shofar (ram’s horn). Kol Nidre calls us to forgiveness and release.

If you are new to our community, don’t worry! Your service leaders will be your guides. Take care of yourselves during services. You are welcome to get up and stretch.

May these High Holiday services be wells of hope from which you can draw in abundance in these uncertain times.

L’shanah tovah! Blessings for a sweet new year.

WELCOME: YOUR PRESENCE IS A BLESSING

We’ll sing out this song for years to come,in a story without an endFor how good it is to be among our brothers and sisters and friends.

ברוך אתה יהוה אלהינו מלך העולם אשר קדשנו במצותיונו להדליק נר של יום טוב: וצו

ELEMENTAL MEDITATION

Call forth a moment of earth: wood, stone, soil. Call forth a moment of water: ocean, stream, rain.Call forth a moment of air: wind, song, breath. Call forth a moment of fire: candle, sun, lightning.

Let these moments ground youAs you open your heart to pray.

Rabbi Jill Hammer

OR ZARUA

Or, Or Zarua La (la la la la) la TzadikUlyishrei lev simchaLight shines for the righteous, and joy for those who feel with a full heart.

Live a life of goodness (Be the righteous one!)Live a life of kindness (Be the righteous one!)Live a life of holiness (Be the righteous one!)And let your heart shine out!

Psalm 97Music by Jared Stein

אור זרע לצדיק, ולישרי-לב שמחה:

Baruch atah Adonai eloheinu melech ha-olam asher kid-shanub’mitz-votav v’tzivanu l’hadlik ner shel Yom Tov.

Blessed are You, Life Unfolding, manifesting in time and space, bringing awe to our lives with the mitzvah of kindling the holiday light.

This is the sound of one voice.One spirit. One voice.The sound of one who makes a choice.This is the sound of one voice (x2)

This is the sound of voices two.The sound of me singing with you.Helping each other to make it through.This is the sound of voices two (x2)

This is the sound of voices three.Singing together in harmony.Surrendering to the mystery.This is the sound of voices three (x2)

This is the sound of all of us.Singing with love and the will to trust.Leave the rest behind it will turn to dust.This is the sound of all of us. (x2)

This is the sound of one voice.One people. One voice.A song for every one of us,This is the sound of one voice (x2)

The Wailin’ Jennys

BARCHU / ONE VOICE

Barchu et Adonai ham’vorach. Baruch Adonai ham’vorach l’olam va-ed.

Blessed is the Source of infinite blessing which has many and no Names, throughout time and space.

ברכו את יהוה המברך:ברוך יהוה המברך לעולם ועד:

SH’MA

7

We are embraced by arms that find us even when we are hiddenfrom ourselves.We are touched by fingers that soothe us even when we are too proud for soothing.We are counseled by voices that guide us even when we are too embittered to hear.

We are loved by an unending love.

We are supported by hands that uplift us even in the midst of a fall.We are urged on by eyes that meet us even when we are too weak for meeting.

We are loved by an unending love.

Embraced, touched, soothed, and counseled,ours are the arms, the fingers, the voices;ours are the hands, the eyes, the smiles;We are loved by an unending love.

Lyrics by Rabbi Rami ShapiroMusic by Rabbi Shir Yaakov Feit

WE ARE LOVED

שמע ישראל יהוה אלהינו יהוה אחד:Shema yisrael Adonai eloheinu Adonai echad.

Listen, all people who ask questions about the universe. The Source of all life is an unfolding process, and everything is connected to Oneness.

ברוך שם כבוד מלכותו לעולם ועד:Baruch shem kevod malchuto le’olam va’ed.

We express gratitude and awareness of what’s special in our lives.

Deuteronomy 6:4Translation by Josh and Noah Bub

Hear our prayers:That which Was, That which Is, That which Will Be.We imagine You.We’re listening.Do You hear us?

We are in this glorious and troubled place and we take responsibility for how it turns out.Blessed Yah, may the world to come be the world we live in.

Let us dreamWildly unimaginable blessings …

Blessings so unexpected,Blessings so beyond our hopes for this world,Blessings so unbelievable in this era,That their very existenceUplifts our vision of creation,Our relationships to each other,And our yearning for life itself.

Let us dreamWildly unimaginable blessings …

A complete healing of mind, body, and spirit,A complete healing for all,The end of suffering and strife,The end of plague and disease,When kindness flows from the river of love,When goodness flows from the river of grace,Awakened in the spirit of all beings,When Divine light,Radiating holiness,Is seen by everyone.

Let us pray —With all our hearts —

For wildly unimaginable blessings,So that the Divine will hear the callTo open the gates of the Garden,Seeing that we haven’t waited,That we’ve already begun to repair the world,In testimony to our faith in life,Our faith in each other,And our faith in the Holy One,Blessed be the Universe.

O Source and Strength of our lives, please hear us and lead us to grace.Our Guide deep within us, O hear us and give uscompassion and mercy and peace.O guide us into grace: justice and mercy for all.O guide us and teach us, grant justice and mercy.We shall be free once again.

Our Source, may we make this year a fresh beginning.Our Strength, may we grow from life’s challenges.Our Source, may we accept what we cannot change. Our Strength, may we change what we can.Our Source, may we soften into acceptance.Our Strength, may we brighten into joy.Our Source, may we gratefully receive what we are given. Our Strength, may we learn how to embrace our enemies.

Chorus adapted from Rabbi Burt Jacobson

O sweet Spirit, hear my prayerHelp these words heal someone out thereI am but a voice, just a cry in the airBut I sing, nonetheless, in this pain we share

O sweet friends, come and dry your eyesAnd hold each other by this Tree of LifeI’m angry and tired of this great divideBut I sing, nonetheless, with love on our side

Ana El na refa na la...(Please G!d heal her now)

O sweet souls who feel broken nowWe’ll heal together, somewhere, somehowTime and again, we have been let downBut we sing, nonetheless, still whole and still proud

Ana El na refa na la...(Please G!d heal her now)

O sweet Spirit, hear my prayerHelp these words heal someone out there

Praise the world,praise its fullness and its longing,its beauty and its grief.

Praise stone and fire,lilac and river,and the solitary bird at the window.

Praise the moment when the whole bursts through pain,And the moment when the whole bursts forth in joy.

Praise the dying beauty with all your breath, and praising, seeThe beauty of the world is your own.

Amen.

Marcia Falk

MOURNERS KADDISH - INTERPRETATIVE TRANSLATION

It is upon us to repair the broken places.

It is upon us to face the truth no matter how difficult.It is upon us to see that justice is complex and not always easy.It is upon us to know when we have choices, and to make them.

It is upon us to understand that our prayers are holy conversations.It is upon us to be mindful and to take our spirituality seriously.It is upon us to hold more than one idea of God in our heads at any given time.

It is upon us to enjoy our bodies without shame.It is upon us to listen when others say no, and when they say yes.It is upon us to have fun and to spread it around.
