Listen: Cry No More by Shwekey

Touching song about the pain the Jewish nation has endured in its homeland. Terror attacks, war, death and destruction. There is so much pain and so much hope. As the notes stuck in the Western Wall fly to the heavens the hope that the Jewish nation clings to becomes tangible. A beautiful expression of pain and hope in this truly eloquent video.

LYRICS:

Many tears have fallen, many years we're calling,
Please no more
Many broken-hearted, friends lost and departed,
Please no more
Now the time has come, everyone must stand together,
and be strong forever more.
Young and helpless children, illness and confusion,
Please no more
Old and lonely people, hunger, war and evil,
Please no more
Now the time has come, everyone as one forever
Let His kingdom rise again.

Chorus
Cry no more Yerushalayim,
Shine once more Yerushalayim,
We need to see you proud again
Upon the mountain of Hashem
Then we'll cry no more Yerushalayim

Enemies of freedom, hatred without reason,
Please no more
Weapons of destruction, terror and corruption.
Please no more
Now the time has come, return and stay this time forever
Let His glory shine again
