Text chanted before reading the Torah, re-imagined at the foot of Mount Sinai, where the Torah is said to have been transmitted for the first time. Written for the holiday of Shavuot, can also be sung during the Torah processional on weekdays or Shabbat.

Ki Mi Tzion
Hebrew Lyrics Source: Liturgy
Hebrew Adaptation, English Lyrics, & Music: Jessi Roemer
Ki mi Tzion teitzei Torah, ud’var Adonai mei Har Sinai
(From Zion Torah will come forth, and the word of God from Mt Sinai)
Won’t you meet me at the mountain?
Carve our love right in the stone
Won’t you teach me at the mountain?
And lift my soul, and lift my soul
