The Promise - Aryeh Kunstler (Official Lyric Video)

"The Promise" by Aryeh Kunstler
I wrote this song years ago - and it always stayed in the back of my mind. This song spans from this past weeks Parsha to after the Akeida - hammering in G-d’s promise to Avraham Avinu that our nation will grow and grow. Even when faced with the test to sacrifice his one and only son, the future of the Jewish people, Avraham did not hesitate and did not falter. We are proof that The Promise is still true to this day.

Lyrics:
You’ve waited all this while
Still without a child
Yet your faith in me remains strong
You’ve really done your best
Passed every test
Never questioning anything at all
So this I promise you
If you promise to stay true
Your children will be like the stars in the sky
This vast universe before your very eyes
Endless in number and endless in size
You couldn’t count 'em if you tried
I promise you tonight
Now that I’ve granted you a son
There’s one more thing to be done so
Listen, please
Take the one you love
Sacrifice him up above
As offering to me
So this I promise you
If you promise to stay true
Your children will be like the stars in the sky
This vast universe before your very eyes
Endless in number and endless in size
You couldn’t count em if you tried
הַבֶּט־נָ֣א הַשָּׁמַ֔יְמָה וּסְפֹר֙ הַכּ֣וֹכָבִ֔ים
Abraham Abraham
Please do not move your hand
You’ve proven yourself loyal to me
Your name will carry on
Your nation will grow strong
A promise kept throughout history
So this I promise you
If you promise to stay true
