Greater Love


Hello friends!!!

This is a new song I produced with which I represented Israel at a song contest, the Euro Christian music festival that was meant to be the Christian version of the Eurovision song contest. It's a duet with a female Israeli singer. I appreciate your feedback.. I attach the YouTube and Spotify links, thanks!

The lyrics are exact quotes of the Gospel, in Hebrew and English, the same words in the 2 languages. I sacrificed a bit the musicality to keep the exact words of Jesus in their original order

Verse 1
F: .כְּשֵׁם שֶׁהָאָב אוֹהֵב אוֹתִי כֵּן גַּם אנִי אוֹהֵב אֶתְכֶם
M: As the Father- has loved me-, I have also -loved you;
Prechorus 1
F: עִמְדוּ בְּאַהֲבָתִי
M: Remain in my love.
Chorus
F: .אֵין אַהֲבָה גְּדוֹלָה -מֵאַהֲבָתוֹ שֶׁל הנּוֹתֵן-- אֶת נַפְשׁוֹ- בְּעַד יְדִידָיו
M: Greater love- has no one- than this-: that someone- lay down his life- for his friends.
Together: אֶהֱבוּ זֶה אֶת זֶה כְּמוֹ שֶׁאֲנִי אָהַבְתִּי אֶתְכֶם
Love one another - as I have loved you.
Verse 2
F: If you remain in My Word-, you will be truly my disciples- and you will know - the truth-
M: ". אִם תַּעַמְדוּ בּדְבָרִי, תַּלְמִידַי אַתֶּם בֶּאֱמֶת; 32 וְתֵדְעוּ אֶת הָאֱמֶת
Pre-chorus 2
F: and the truth will set you free
M: וְהָאֱמֶת תּשַׁחְרֵר אֶתְכֶם
Chorus 2
M: .אֵין אַהֲבָה גְּדוֹלָה -מֵאַהֲבָתוֹ שֶׁל הנּוֹתֵן-- אֶת נַפְשׁוֹ- בְּעַד יְדִידָיו
F: Greater love- has no one- than this-: that someone- lay down his life- for his friends.
Together: אֶהֱבוּ זֶה אֶת זֶה כְּמוֹ שֶׁאֲנִי אָהַבְתִּי אֶתְכֶם
Love one another as I have loved you.
Bridge:
M: I am with you always
F: אִתְּכֶם אֲנִי כָּל הַיָּמִים
Togheter: עַד קץ הָעוֹלָם
till the world's end
Chorus 3
Together: .אֵין אַהֲבָה גְּדוֹלָה -מֵאַהֲבָתוֹ שֶׁל הנּוֹתֵן-- אֶת נַפְשׁוֹ- בְּעַד יְדִידָיו
Greater love- has no one- than this-: that someone- lay down his life- for his friends.
אֶהֱבוּ זֶה אֶת זֶה כְּמוֹ שֶׁאֲנִי אָהַבְתִּי אֶתְכֶם
Love one another as I have loved you.

Greater Love

Beautiful, melodious and infused with the love that flows from the Trinity. A very nice blend of vocals and righteous instrumental backing. Awesome that you performed this in concert.

Thanks for sharing.
