VP_008891 Verse 1God, Almighty God! Hast Thou forsaken us? God, Almighty God! Hast Thou forsaken us? With fire and flame ev'ry one's been tortured, ev'rywhere we went, We have been put to shame; but nobody could make us turn from our faith, from Thee, our God, from Thy Holy Torah, or Thy Holy Law. God, Almighty, Don't forsake us, we pray! God, Almighty, don't forsake us, we pray! Night and day we cry and pray, Night and day we pray! We guard with fear Thy Sacred Law, We are praying night and day! Save us now, Save us from danger now, as Thou didst many times before. Hear our pray'r, See our tears, Thou alone canst help us. Hear us,o God, our Lord and King, our Lord and King! Verse 2Eli, Eli! lomo asavto ni! Eli, Eli! lomo asavtoni! In Feuer und Flamm hat man uns gebrennt, uberall gemacht uns zu Schand' und zu Spott, doch abzuwenden hat uns keiner nich gekennt von Dir, mein Gott, von dein heilge Toire und dein Gebot. Eli, Eli! lomo asavtovi! Eli, Eli! lomo asavtoni! Tag und Nacht nur ich tracht von Dir, mein Gott! Ich hut mit Moire unser Toire, deine zehn Gebot: Rette uns, Rette uns von Gefahr, wie amol die oves fin beisen G'zar. Hor mein Gebet, hor mein Gewein, helfen kannst Du, nur Du allein. Sh'ma Jisroel, Ad'noi elohenu, Adonoi, Echod!
