May is also Jewish American Heritage Month. I perused GlobalWorship and found out about a talented singer/songwriter of the Messianic Jewish community named Misha Goetz. Her website offers recordings, lyrics and chord charts. One of her more popular songs is the "Aaronic Benediction." It has lyrics in Hebrew and English, shown below:
English Verse:
May the Lord, May the Lord bless and keep you
May his grace and his face shine upon you
May the Lord lift up his countenance upon you
And give you peace, and give you peace.
Hebrew Verse:
Y'-va-re-ch'-cha A-do-nai v'-yish-m'-re-cha;
ya-er pa-nav a-le-cha vi-chu-ne-ka;
yi-sa A-do-nai pa-nav a-le-cha
v'ya-sem-l'-cha sha-lom, v'ya-sem-l'-cha sha-lom
Bridge:
This is the way
You shall be blessed
From day to day
He’ll be your rest
