Sweet As honey, sweet as honey, sweet as honey on our tongue (4x)
Süss wie Honig, süss wie Honig, süss wie Honig auf unser Zunge

Blessed are You, Adonai our God, Sovereign of the universe, who hallows us
Gepriesen seist Du, Herr, unser Gott, König der Welt, welcher uns heiligt
בְּמִצְותָיו וְצִוָּנוּ לַעֲסוק בְּדִבְרֵי תורָה

Sweet As Honey

Music: Dan Nichols
