Hold On Tight • Vzakeini feat. Benny Friedman & Baruch Levine

Help us reach 50,000 Women Around the World https://boneiolam.org/vzakeini/?aff=utube They used to wait alone. Couples. Husbands and wives. When would they merit a child of their own? Their silent hopes and whispered prayers ascended to the One Above. But a few years ago, suddenly, there was a movement. A movement that brought people together. In short order, the couples were no longer waiting alone. They were now waiting with 40,000 women, who davened for them every week as they stood in front of the flickering candles on Erev Shabbos, offering prayers from the heart while also each contributing $1 to tzedakah every week in their merit. Celebrating the two year anniversary of this worldwide effort, bringing Yidden together in unity and prayer, Bonei Olam released a remarkable, stirring new song that depicts the dreams that lie in the hearts of these couples, the achdus generated by the Vezakeini project, and the idea that in a world that is often lonely and challenging, Klal Yisroel is waiting – and hoping – together, as one. Because together, we are stronger. And so are our tefillos. For those waiting for shidduchim, refuos, and other yeshuos, the message is the same. Klal Yisroel is waiting together, in unity. And we wait, we hope, and we pine – together - for the ultimate yeshuah with Moshiach’s arrival. Because, as the song describes, together, our cries our stronger.
