  1. I loved it, thank you for sharing these songs!

  2. I love this Hashkiveinu and you sing it so beautifully. Do you know where I can find guitar chords and (a bonus but less important) sheet music? thanks in advance, Jamie

  3. Hi
    Thanks for these words.
    Do you maybe have the sheet music for ‘of yavo shalom aleinu’? All I can find online are the chords, but I’d like to find the melody.
    Any help?

    Many thanks
    Assaf

  4. Thank you so very much! Were so very grateful way! I sing this to my daughter, Ellie Sheva Shoshanna EVERY NIGHT before bed. Its Abbas and Lizzies ritual. Baruch Hashem
