There are no words to describe the recent events our community has been through, amongst them the untimely passing of Hachosson Yossi Kreiman OBM.
In light of this, the bochurim of Yeshiva Ohr Elchonon Chabad in Los Angeles composed a song in his memory, which expresses the troubled times we live in, as well as the positive manner in which we respond to our troubles, as we strive to stay strong through these final darkest days of golus.
The song was composed by Benny Begun, with lyrics by Ari Raskin and produced by Tzemi Yemini and Zalmy Dubinsky.
Vocals by Nisson Friedman recorded at Benshimon Studios, and album artwork by Chaki Abhesera – visionaryflock.com.
Special thanks to Menachem Shemtov and Shaya Greene for all of their help.
May the time come when at last we’ll dry our tears and be reunited with all Neshamos from on high, with the coming of Moshiach Bekarov Mammash.
The song is available as a free download by clicking here through MostlyMusic.com.
Since the song is being given out for free, the producers hope you will consider donating to this very worthy cause. The money will be going to a library in his memory. To donate – click here.
