My Precious Yakhiyd

about

In the Hebrew language, there are two words for "one". There is the word "ekhad" and the word "yakhid" The word yakhid narrows down to an utmost singularity. In other words, if you were to go to the market and ask for "ekhad" grape, they would give you one cluster of grapes. If you were to ask for "yakhid" grape, they would look at you because you were crazy to offer your shekels to such a nice man or woman over one single grape thus wasting their time.

This was written in Israel about four years ago, and I will just say, that I had NO idea what the next four years would be like, much less this last fourth year. And as I see God take things away, including a dear friend of mine who was present when I wrote this song via car accident, it only further affirms that God is my Yakhiyd. The only one I shall ever need, and He will not be taken away from me. Hallelujah.


Special shout out to Sona Granados who served as an inspiration to writing this song those years ago,
and to David Mann who I will be seeing in heaven some day =) You lucky son of a gun.

lyrics

Cover my eyes, I'll walk guided by Your hand;
I'm following Jesus, I'm not following man.
Here is this life: it's Yours.
Here is my heart: it's Yours.
To everything else I'll wave goodbye,
all attaching strings will be removed in given time.
Here is this life: it's Yours.
Here is my heart: it's Yours.

My precious Yakhiyd, You're the only one I need-
no source aside from You can satisfy.
My precious Yakhiyd, to Your source I take heed;
No love aside from You can satisfy.

I won't be running blind, Lord You are my eyes.
I won't be without rest, You're my refuge in my trials.
Here is this life: it's Yours.
Here is my heart: it's Yours.

For You I leave my life behind
For You I leave my will behind
For You I leave my fear behind:
even in Your name alone do I find rest.
