On A Mountain Long Ago!
D. T. Lancaster / Troy MItchell
(To the tune of "Old McDonald Had a Farm")
On a Mountain long ago,
Sinai, Sinai, Oh!
Thunder claps and lightning show
Hear that shofar blow!
With a mitzvah here and a mitzvah there,
Here a "Do," there a "Don't," everywhere a holy note.
On a Mountain long ago,
Sinai, Sinai, Oh!
Ten Mitzvot that we should know
Sinai, Sinai, Oh!
Believe in God in heaven above
And here on earth below
Don’t make idols or worship one.
Or take in vain his name, my son!
Keep Shabbat the seventh day.
Honor Parents every day.
No murder; no adultery.
Do not steal or lie to me.
Do not covet what others have!
Sinai, Sinai, Oh!
On a Mountain long ago,
Sinai, Sinai, Oh!
Thunder claps and lightning show
Hear that shofar blow!
With a mitzvah here and a mitzvah there,
Here a "Do," there a "Don't," everywhere a holy note.
On a Mountain long ago,
Sinai, Sinai, Oh!
