Shelach: Not Yours to Say
VERSE 1
There's a wall that's way too high.
Reaching up into the sky.
There's a giant, big and mean.
Biggest one you've ever seen.
Suddenly you feel so small.
Like a grasshopper. That's all.
You're not sure that you can win.
You don't know where to begin.
CHORUS
Yes, the giants might be tall.
Yes, you might feel scared and small.
What you see is true, okay.
But the ending's not yours to say.
Don't sit there in the dark alone.
Writing endings on your own.
Run to Hashem, He hears you call.
Nothing's too hard for Him at all.
VERSE 2
So you say, "I'm gonna lose."
Before you ever get to choose.
And you cry and cry all night.
Sure that nothing will be right.
Hashem waits for you each day.
But you turn the other way.
All because you thought you knew.
How the story ends for you.
CHORUS
Yes, the giants might be tall.
Yes, you might feel scared and small.
What you see is true, okay.
But the ending's not yours to say.
Don't sit there in the dark alone.
Writing endings on your own.
Run to Hashem, He hears you call.
Nothing's too hard for Him at all.
VERSE 3
Take a breath and look behind.
Every step, you'll always find.
Hashem carried you along.
Every time you weren't strong.
Did He bring you all this way?
Just to let you lose today?
So when fear is standing near.
Talk to Hashem — He's right here.
BRIDGE
When you wake up scared at night.
And there's not a bit of light.
You run straight to Totty's door.
And you're not scared anymore.
Hashem is your Totty too.
He is waiting up for you.
Here's a secret you should know.
He loves YOU — and won't let go.
FINAL CHORUS
Yes, the giants might be tall.
Yes, you might feel scared and small.
What you see is true, okay.
But the ending's not yours to say.
Don't sit there in the dark alone.
Writing endings on your own.
Run to Hashem, He hears you call.
Nothing's too hard for Him at all.
