Shiloh

In the mountains of Efraim, there’s a wonder for all to see
Greener pastures and many orchards in the valley beckons me
As I gaze up at the hilltops I see history with my own eyes
Yes it’s Shiloh the City of Awe coming alive

Seven years after our people entered Eretz Yisrael
The Mishkan came to Shiloh to settle there as well
Now seven years after the Six-Day War a new city came to be
The rebirth of Shiloh was making history

Chorus: Shiloh City of Peace and Faith
Shiloh we no longer have to wait
The center of our land, the beginning of his plan
Shiloh is our home

In the time of the prophets during the festival days
The Jews would come to Shiloh to thank God for his good ways
Chana offered up her prayers and a son to her God gave.
Now until today many women come and pray.

On Tu B’av the daughters of Shiloh went out to the fields
Dressed in white so only their inner beauty would be revealed
All the men would look around and try to find a wife
In Shiloh, they would start a brand new life. Chorus…

Chorus: Shiloh: City of Peace and Faith
Shiloh we no longer have to wait
The center of our land, the beginning of his plan
Until Mashiach Comes

Bridge: Shiloh sanctified everything as far as the eye could see
All of its surroundings were made holy
It is said that all who gazed upon the city of Shiloh
Was filled with a fear of God
